PREFACE. 

How strange a coincident in lime, that I, in my eightieth year, 
am permitted to finish a work in lionor of my kinsmen, at the same age 
our worthy ancestor, Deacon John Dunham, of IMymoutli. had com- 
pleted his labors for the benefit -of his descendants. 

In the preparation of this work I have found the task of grave re- 
sponsibility and through the many \ ears in w hich 1 have been employed 
in the compilation of records of the famib there has been a continuous 
struggle. vState. county, town, court, cliurch and family records had to 
be searched to verify dates obtained through ci)rres])ondcnce. Discus- 
sions with many on disputed questions arose from ditferent versions of 
the same subject or confiicting records to such an extent that I was com- 
pelled to assume an independent position, and in doing so 1 may have 
erred in judgment. In the early history of the family in this country 
there was a marked tendencv among the younger members of the fami- 
lies to leave the paternal roof and to seek new regions and become self- 
supporting and independent. In the choice of these homes they were 
very differently inclined, some preferring to live in the more i>oj)ulated 
sections where their family records were well |)reserved while others, 
with heartless consideration for a future genealogist, migrated to remote 
parts of the countr\- where the records of their res])ectiye families were 
not as well kept. As a result of tliis latter migration nmch confusion 
has arisen in the writing and com])iling a history of the fannly. 

Attempts have been made to write a history of the famil\- in dif- 
ferent sections of the countrw ])Ut this method has not met willi success, 
as the records in tliese instances have been necessarily limited and not 
retrospective. In the ])reparation of this work the compiler has had 
access to the most reliable students in Dunham Iiistory and the latter 
have generousK- i)laced the results of their researches in his hands. 

It is not claimed that this work is be\'ond criticism. After exi-rcis- 
ing all ])ossible personal diligence mistakes have probably occurred and 
omissions may have .been made, but such failures arc simply due to the 
inability of the com|)iler to grasp all of the details of this Iferculean un- 
dertaking. 

'J^o all those who have in any wa}- assisted in the ])rei)aration or 
publication of the genealogy I tender my heartfelt thanks. I would 



PREFACE. 

cheerfully specify their iiulividiial contributions, but in view of the fact 
that so many have given the records of the same families, to insert them 
would lengthen the work to an unlimited extent and 1 have deemed it 
better to append a list of some of our kinsmen, located in dififerent parts 
of the country, who have generouslv contributed their assistance in the 
compilation of this genealogy. The com])iler has received some inter- 
esting; contributions from noble friends outside .if the fami]\, and while 
these contributions were correct in nian\ details they were limited in 
scope, and where they have been at variance with the continuous records 
submitted by our kinsmen, they have been laid aside, the compiler giving 
preference to the records handed down by the various Dunham families. 

All of the records presented have \U)t been approved by the com- 
piler, owing to the fact that they were not proved to be clearly authentic 
to him and were not in unison with the general scope of the work. An 
opportunity is now presented to those who desire to make a more criti- 
cal study of the Dunham family. 

The anxiety, annoyances and loss of time and money are really in- 
significant with the pleasure I have enjoyed in prosecuting my re- 
searches. My advanced age and impaired eyesight will not permit me to 
prolong the investigation or to further discuss the subject. 

In committing the work to you, 1 trust you will receive it kindly and 
take pleasure in its perusal.

EDWARD III. 

EDWARD III was born Nov. 13, 1312, at Windsor Castle, and 
was the eldest son of Edward II and Isabella, dan. of Phillip IV, 
of France. His mother's life was stained with the foulest crimes and 
his father's death was revenged by the perpetual imprisonment of 
Isabella, and the public execution of her paramour, Mortimer. On the 
29th of January, 1327, lie was crowned King of England. Edward 
would not accept the crown without his father's consent which was ob- 
tained five days before the coronation. He was m. at York on the 
24th of January, 1328, to Philippa, dau. of the Count of Hainault. 
Edward's mother and the Countess of Hainault were grandchildren of 
Philip HI of France. 

The times in which Edward lived, the circumstances under which 
he was placed, the influences brought to bear on his conduct, conspired 
i.o make his life restless and turbulent. To meet the demands thrown 
on him, he had to exert to the utmost all the energy of mind that he 
possessed and his whole life was of continual strife. As a legislator he 
was shrewd and magnanimous and as a general on ihe field of 1)altle he 
v/as vigilant and courageous and he was successful in many of the con- 
flicts which gave glory to the English arms. 

Conquerors, though usually the bane of liuman kind, [)roved often 
in these feudal times, the most indulgent of sovereigns. They stood 
most in need of supplies, and not being always able to compel the 
peo])le by force to submit to the necessary impositions, they were 
obliged to compensate them by equitable laws and popular concessions. 
Edward took no steps of moment without consulting his ])arliament, 
and generally obtained their a])probation and support iov his measures. 
The parliament, therefore, rose into greater consideration during his 
reign, and acquired a more regular authority than in any I'ornuT time; 
and even the Plouse of Connnons, which, during turbulent and factious 
periods, was naturally oppressed l)y the greater power of the crown 
and barons began to ap])ear of some weight in the constitution. In 
the later years of Edward, the King's ministers were im])eaclu'd in 
parliament and fell a sacrifice to their authority. Some attention was 

(iii) 



IV ENGLISH HISTORY. 

paid to the elections of their members; and lawyers, who were, at that 
time, men of very inferior character, were totally excluded from the 
House during several parliaments. One of the most popular laws, 
enacted by any prince, was the statute, which passed in the twenty-fifth 
year of his reign, and which limited the cases of high treason, before 
vague and uncertain, to three principal heads : (i) the conspiring of the 
death of the King, (2) the levying war against him and (3) the 
adhering to his enemies. The Judges were prohibited, if any other 
cases should occur, from inflicting the penalty of treason, without ap- 
plication to parliament. 

Edward granted above twenty parliamentary confirmations of the 
Magna Charta ; and these concessions are commonly appealed to as 
proof of the great indulgence to the people, and his tender regard for 
their liberties. But the contrary presumption is much more natural. 
Tf the maxims of Edward's reign had not been, in general, somewhat 
arbitrary, and if the great charter had not been frequently violated, the 
parliament would never have appHed for these frequent conformations 
which could add no force to a deed regularly observed, and which could 
serve no other purpose than to prevent the contrary precedents from 
turning into a rule and acquiring authority. It was the effect of the 
irregular government during those ages, that a statute, which had been 
enacted some years, instead of acquiring, was imagined to loose force 
by time, and needed to be often renewed by subsequent statutes of the 
same sense and tenor. The frequent confirmations in general terms of 
the churches' privileges proceeded from the same cause and all would 
appear ridiculous if we did not consider the circumstances of the times. 
It is a clause in one of Edward's statutes, "that no man of what estate 
or condition soever, shall be put out of land or tenement, nor taken, 
nor imprisoned, nor disherited, nor put to death without being brought 
in answer by due process of the law." This privilege was sufficiently 
secured by a clause of the Great Charter, which had received a general 
confirmation in the first chapter of the same statute. Why this clause? 
Plainly because there had been some late infringement of it which gave 
it umbrage to the Commons. But there is no article, in which the laws 
are more frequently repeated during the reign, almost in the same terms, 
than those of purveyance, which the parliament always termed an out- 
rageous and intolerable grievance, and the source of infinite damage to 
the people. The parliament tried to abolish the prerogative altogether 
by prohibiting any one to take goods without the consent of the owners, 
and by changing the name of the purveyors, as they call it, into that of 



KXGLISH HISTORY. V 

buyers, but the arbitrary conduct of Ethvard still broug-lit back the 
grievance upon them, namely, that it was contrary to the Great Charter 
and to many statutes. The disorder was in a great measure derived 
from the state of the public finances and could, therefore, the less admit 
of any remedy. The prince frequently wanted ready money, yet his 
family must be provided for and so was frequently obliged to employ 
force and violence for that purpose, and to give tallies, at what rate he 
pleased to the owners of the goods which he took into his possession. 

The kingdom abounded so little in commodities, that had the 
owners been strictly protected liy law, they could easilv have exacted 
any price from the King, Especially in his frc(|uent exploits, when he 
came to distant and poor places, where the Court did not usually reside, 
and where a regular plan for supplying it could not be easily established. 
There was no act of arbitrary power more frequently repeated in this 
reign, than that of the imposition of taxes without the consent of 
parliament. Though that assembly granted the King more supplies 
than had ever been obtained by any of his predecessors, the great un- 
dertakings of the King and the necessity oi his affairs obliged him to 
levy still more, and his great success against I'rance added still more 
weight to his authority. These ta.x impositions came frequently in spite 
of the opposition of the Commons. The continual remonstrances of the 
Commons, however unavailing, served to prevent the arbitrary practices 
of the court from becoming an established part of the constitution. 

It is easy to imagine that a prince of so much sense and spirit as 
Edward would l^e no slave to the Court of Rome. Thouirh the old 
tribute was paid during ihc years of his minority, he afterwards with- 
held it, and when the Pope in 1367 threatened to cite him to the Court 
of Rome for default oi payment, he laid the matter before his parliament. 
That assembly unanimously declared, that King John cou.ld not, with- 
out a national consent, sul)ject his Kingdom to a foreign power against 
the exorbitant pretention. I)uring Edward's reign, the statute of pro- 
visors was enacted, rendering it penal to ])rocure any presentations to 
beneficies from the Court of Rome, and securing the rights of all patrons 
arid electors, which had been extremely encroached on by the Pope. I'y 
a subsequent statute, every person was outlawed who carried any cause 
or appeal to Rome. The laity at this time seem to have been extremely 
prejudiced against the papal power, and even somewluit against their 
own clerg\-, because of their own connection with the Roman i)onliff. 
They pretended that the usurpations of the Pope were the cause oi all 
the plagues, injuries, famine, anil pi)verty oi the realm; was more

destructive to them than all the wars, and was the cause why it con- 
tained not a third of the inhabitants and commodities, which it formerly 
possessed; that the taxes levied by him exceeded five times those paid 
to the King; that everything was venal in that sinful city of Rome; 
and that even the patrons in England had thence learned to practice 
simony without remorse or scrupple. They petitioned the King to 
employ no Churchman in any office of state, and they even spoke, in 
plain terms, of expelling by force the papal authority, and thereby 
providing a remedy against oppression which they neither could nor 
would any longer endure. Men who talked in this strain were not far 
from the Reformation. But Edward did not think it proper to second 
all this zeal. Though he passed the statute of provisors, he took little 
care with its execution, and the parliament made frequent complaints 
of his negligence. He was content with having reduced such of the 
Romish ecclesiastics, who possessed revenues in England, to depend 
entirely on him by means of that statute. 

As to the police of the Kingdom, during this period it was still bad 
but certainly better than during the time of faction, civil war, and dis- 
order, to which England was so often exposed. Yet there were several 
vices in the constitution, the bad consequences of which all the power 
and vigilance of the King could not prevent. The barons, by their 
confederacies with those of their own order, and by supporting and 
defending their retainers in every iniquity, were the chief abettors of 
robbers, murderers and ruffians of all kinds, so law could not be exe- 
cuted against their criminals. The nobility were brought to give their 
promise in parliament, that they would not avow, retain or support any 
felon or breaker of the law ; yet this engagement' was never regarded 
by them. 

Commerce and industry were certainly at a very low ebb during 
this period. The bad police of the country alone affords a sufficient 
reason. The only exports were wool, skins, hide, leather, butter, tin, 
lead and such unmanufactured goods of which wool was by far the 
most considerable. Edward endeavored to introduce and promote the 
woolen manufacture by giving protection and encouragement to foreign 
weavers, and by enacting a law, prohibiting everyone to wear any cloth 
but of English make. The parliament prohibited the exportation of 
woolen goods, which was not so well judged, especially while the ex- 
portation of unwrought wool was made against the exportation of iron. 
The staple of wool, leather and lead was fixed by act of parliament in 
particular towns in England. But Edward, who commonly deemed 



ENGLISH HISTORY. VI 1 

his prerog-ative superior to law, paid little attention to the statutes, and 
when parliament remonstrated with him, on account of such acts of 
power, he told them, plainly, that he would proceed in the matter as he 
thought proper. There is not a reign among those of ancient English 
monarchs, which is more interesting than that of King Edward III, nor 
one where the domestic transactions will lietter discover the true genius 
of that kind of mixed government wliich was then established in 
England. 

Edward was a prince of great capacity, not governed by favorites, 
nor led astray by any unruly passion, sensi])le tliat nothing could be 
riiore efifectual to his interests than to keep on good terms with his 
people. It appears, however, that the government, at best, was only a 
barbarous monarchy, not regulated by any fixed maxims, nor bound by 
any certain undisputed rights, which were in practice regularly ob- 
served. The King conducted himself by one set of principles and the 
barons by another; the Commons by a third and the Clergy by a fourth. 
Ail these systenis of government were contrary and incompatible. Each 
of them prevailed according as incidents were favorable to it. A great 
I'rince rendered the monarchical power predominant, the weakness of 
a King gave reins to the aristocracy; a superstitious age saw the clergy 
t'-iumphant and the people, for whom alone government was instituted, 
and who alone deserve consideration, were commonly the weakest of 
the whole. However the Commons, little obnoxious to any other order, 
though they sunk under the violence of the tempests, silently raised 
tlieir head in more peaceful times, and while the storm was brewing, 
v/ere courted by all sides, and thus received some accession to their 
privileges or some conformation of them. 

Edward III died on the 21st of June, 1376. and was l)uricd in West- 
minster Abbey near the body of his Queen, I'hilippa of Hainault. 
CHILDREN OF EDWARDIII. I.— Edward, commonly known as 
the Black Prince, from the color of the armor he used at the l^attle of 
Crecy, was born at Woodstock, June 15, 1330. At the age of live his 
father removed his family to Nottingham Castle. On February 9, 1337. 
he was created Duke of Cornwall — the first duke created in England. 
In 1343 he was created Prince of Wales. At an earl\ age he engaged 
in the enterprises of his father and j^rovcd himself a daring soUlier and 
an able commander in all the contlicts with the I'lench and won great 
glory for himself and l'!nghind. A ])rominent trail in his character was 
a readiness to listen to the advise of his father. While at Narbonne a 
messenger came to him from thi- ])apal regency urging him to allow 



viil ENGLISH HISTORY. 

negotiations for peace. He replied that he could do nothing without 
knowing his father's will. He so honored his father that when at a 
great feast in which he served at the King's table he would not sit down 
with him, declaring that he was not worthy to sit at table with so great 
a King or so valiant a man. 

In 1346 Richard de Beauchamp, the Earl of Warwick, accompanied 
Edward, Prince of Wales, to France. The earl died in 1369. He was 
father of Philippa Beauchamp. who m. Hugh Stafford, whose son 
Edmund, fifth Earl of Stafford, was the grandfather, of Margaret, the 
dau. of Humphrey Stafford, first Duke of Buckingham, who m. Roljert 
Dunham of De vonshire,^ Edward espoused his tousin Joan, commonly 
called "the fair maid of Kent." She had been m. to Sir Thomas 
Holland, by whom she had children. She had a son Richard by the 
Prince of Wales, who alone survived his father. Edward d. June 8, 
1376, in the 46th year of his age and had a character, illustrated by 
every eminent virtue, and from his earliest youth, till the' hour he ex- 
pired, he remained unstained by any blemish. His valor and military 
talents formed the smallest part of his merit and his generosity, 
humanity, affability and moderation, gained him the affections of all the 
world. 

H. — The second son of King Edward (John and the two Williams 
having d. in infancy), was Lionel, who was b. at Antwerp Nov. 29, 1338. 
lie was a man of great strength and beauty of person. He was m. 
in 1352 to Elizabeth DeBergh, dau. of Lord of Connaught, and third 
Earl of LHster and head of one of the greatest of the Anglo-Norman 
houses in Ireland. Her mother was Maud, dau. of Lancaster, who 
after the death of her husband, who was murdered in 1332, was m. to 
Ralph Ufford. On Nov. 13, 1362, Lionel was created Duke of Clarence. 
This latter title was derived from the town of Clare in Suffolk, the lord- 
ship of which with other shares in the divided Gloucester estates had 
been inherited by Elizabeth from her grandmother, Elizabeth of Clare, 
the sister of Gilbert, the last Earl of Gloucester, of the house of Clare. 
Elizabeth d. in 1368 and left a dau. who m. Edmund Mortimer, Earl of 
Northumberland and Earl of March. He was sent by his father as 
Viceroy into Ireland and there proved himself inefficient as a ruler. 
After the death of his wife in 1336 a second marriage was proposed, 
and Humprey Bohun, Earl of Hereford, was sent to negotiate a match 
with Violanti Galeazzo, dau. of the Lord of Paria and with elaborate 
arrangements the marriage was consummated in 1368. Soon after the 
ceremonies he was taken ill and died. Personally, Lionel does not

ceeded to the Crown imder the title of King Richard II, in accordance 
with a decree of his grandfather. The great change from a sovereign

of the court, who declared him to be the most beautiful, the wisest and 
best of mankind. To flatter a boy in this manner did not have a 
tendency to develop any good in him. Being a minor, the govern- 
ment was vested in the hands of his three uncles, the dukes of Lan- 
caster, York, and Gloucester. The duke was supposed to have some 
tiioughts of the throne himself, but he was not popular, and the memory 
of the Black Prince to the people was enough to force him to submit 
to his nephew, though on dififerent occasions he took measures to em- 
barrass the King in some of his enterprises. IV. — The fourth son of the 
royal family was Edmund, b. at King's Langly Hertfords, June 5, 1341. 
He was created Earl of Cambridge by his father, and in 1385 Duke of 
York by Richard II, his nephew. He was twice married : first, to Isabel, 
of Castile, who d. Nov. 3, 1393, and second, in 1395, to Joan, dau. of 
Thomas Holland, Earl of Kent, who surviving him m. three other 
husbands and d. in 1434. In 1347 he received a grant of land beyond 
the Trent, belonging to John de Warren, Earl of Surrey. He d. at 
Langley, August i, 1402. 

Edmund was the least remarkable of his father's sons. He was an 
easy going man of pleasure and had no care for worlcUy riches and was 
very much under the guidance of his elder brother and Duke of Lan- 
caster. During the minority of Richard II he acted with his brother as 
guardian and when Richard took the government into his own hands, 
for three successive years, was made regent during the absence of the 
King. In transacting business the Duke of Gloucester paid little at- 
tention to the will of Edmund, as Lancaster had him under his control. 

Richard II was unable to cope with the machinations of his uncle, 
the Duke of Lancaster, and he was accused of certain accusations which 
v/ere presented against him and in consecjuence of which he was de- 
posed. Lancaster immediately put his forces in motion and procured 
the election of his son, Henry IV, instead of Richard. This began the 
contest between the houses of York and Lancaster. The Yorkists were 
designated by the white and the Lancasters by the red rose. These 
wars extended from 1452 to 1494. Philippa, dau. of Lionel, second son 
of Edward HI, sided with the Yorkists. CHILDREN OF EDMUND,

V. — Omitting the two sons who d. in infancy, Thomas was the fifth 
son of Edward. He was b. at Woodstock on the 7th of January, 
1354. He m., in 1374, Eleanor de Bohun, dau. of Earl of Hereford. 
Essex and Northampton. Through his wife he was styled Earl of 
Essex. Having been knighted by his father at Windsor on the 23rd 
of April, 1377, he carried the sceptre and the dove at the coronation of 
his nephew, Richard 11, and was created Earl of r.uckinghain. During 
the summer and fall of 1380, he was engaged in a conflict with his 
brother Edmund, against a French and Spanish fleet which had ])een 
raging the southern coast and averted a landing at Dover. Thomas's re- 
lation with his elder brother, John of Gaunt, had never been cordial. 
Lancaster had inflicted a marked slight upon him by putting his own, af- 
terwards Henry IV, a mere boy into the order of the Charter in preference 
to him. Thomas had a forgiving and magnanimous disposition. During 
his absence in France, Lancaster m. his son, Henry I\', to Mary T.ohun, 
younger sister of his wife. Richard II, in 1381, tletermined to rule 
through his own means, drew together his uncles, Thomas and Lan- 
ca.'^ter. They were associated together in the expedition into Scotland 
and in the negotiations with France and k'landers. 

When Lancaster was accused of treason at Salisbury, Thomas burst 
into the King's chamber, and swore with a great oath to kill any one 
who should bring such charges against his brother. Richard for a time 
deferred more to his uncles, to cover his own tlesigns. On the sixth oi 
August, 1385, he created Thomas Duke of Cdoucester and I'.dnunid 
Duke of York, and by letters ])atent made them grants from the ex- 
chequer. Richard ho])ed, 1)\ elevating his younger uncles, Thoinas and 
Edmund, to sow fresh disst'usitm beiueen llu'm and |olm of (launl. and 
to cover his promotion of his Immhle born minister, .Miiliael de ia I'ole,

cester on Lancaster's departure to Spain placed himself openly at the 
head of the opposition to the King, and was one of the judges, who 
condemned Suffolk in 1386, and a member of the commission for the 
reform of the household and realm. 

Richard is alleged toi have plotted his murder at dinner but such 
charges were made too freely at the time to command implicit credence, 
but Gloucester, who forced Richard to dismiss Suffolks by threatening 
him with the fate of Edward II. had certainly given ])rovocation. When 
the King, in 1387, procured a declaration from the judges, that the 
authors of the commission were guilty of treason and began to raise 
forces, Gloucester and his friends sought to avert the storm by swearing 
a solemn oath, that they had been actuated by no personal motives, l^ut 
only by anxiety for Richard's own honor and interests. Gloucester, 
however, refused to forego his revenge on De Vere, whom the King had 
made Duke of Ireland. De Vere had repudiated his niece for a Bohe- 
mian serving woman. Failing to obtain support from the Londoners 
against Gloucester, who took arms with the Earls of Arundel and War- 
v>'ick, Richard affected to agree to the impeachment of his favorites in 
tlie parliament which was to meet in 1388. Rut on liis sending the 
Duke of Ireland to raise an army in Cheshire, and attempting to pack 
ihe parliament, the three lords met and talked of deposing the King, 
joined by the Earls of Derby and Nottingham they routed De Vere, 
and the Londoners opening their gates, they got admission to the Tower 
and entered the presence of the helpless King with linked arms. Glou- 
cester showed him their forces on Tower Hill and soothed his mind by 
assurances, that ten times their number were ready to join in destroying 
the traitors to the King and the realm. Had Gloucester not been over- 
ruled by Derby and Nottingham, Richard would have been deposed, 
and he was no doubt responsible for the vindictiveness of the parliament. 
Gloucester and his associates held the reins of power for more than 
a year, not without some attempt to justify their promises of reform, 
but they did not hesitate to obtain parliamentary grants by way of 
reimbursing them for their patriotic sacrifices. Gloucester also secured 
the lordship of Holderness, the castle town and manor of Oakham, with 
the sheriffdome of Rutland, which had belonged to his wife's ancestors ; 
and the office of chief justice of Chester and North Wales, which gave 
him a hold over a district attached to Richard l\v local loyalty. 

The King resuming the government, in 1389, and promising his 
subjects better government, Gloucester was naturally in disgrace, but 
through the good offices of the Earl of Northumberland and of John of

Gaunt, his peace was made and (Irants were made to him and his 
brothers, but he doubtless feU thai he liad no real influence with the 
King. Early in 1392, Richard appointed ( ilouccstcr his lieutenant in 
Ireland, only to supersede him suddenly in favor of the young Earl of 
March. Gloucester was then holding an uu|uiry into a London riot, but 
tliis may not have been the cause of his supercession. The King, it is 
worth noticing, was seeking llu' canonization of Edward II, with whose 
fate he had been threatened b\' his uncle a few years before. 

The Cheshire men rose against (iloucester and Lancaster in 1393, 
while they were negotiating at Calais, in the belief that it was the King's 
wish, and Richard had to publish a disavowal. There was some reason 
at this time to think the Earl of Arundel was trying to force on a crisis. 
Gloucester had now to give up his post as chief justice of Chester to 
Richard's henchman, Nollingham, but was consoled with a fresh grant 
of Holderness and Oakham and certain estates that had belonged to 
De \ ere, yet he could not but have been uneasy by the King's quiet 
attacks upon the work of parliament and his serious breach with 
Arundell, after the Queen's death in June, 1394. Richard took Glou- 
cester with him to Ireland in the fall of 1394. but sent him back the 
following spring to obtain a grant from the new parliament. It is plain 
that the relations of Gloucester with the court were getting strained. 
The cotirtiers accused the duke of malice and cunning and said that he 
had a good head, but was ])rou(l and wonderfully overbearing in his 
n:anners. Mis advocacv of coercion to make the Gascons receive John 
of Gaunt as their duke was ])ul down to his desire to have the field to

cations followed sinfull\ u])ou one another. It was alleged by the 
French waiters, favorable to Richard, that (Gloucester. .Arundell and 
Warwick engaged in a conspiracy which aimed m the perpetual im-

solemn procession of priests and clerks of his newly founded college. 
As Gloucester, bent in obedience, Richard, with his own hand, arrested 
him, and leading the procession to the chapel assured his uncle that all 
would turn out for the best. After breakfast, Richard set off with most 
of his followers, leaving Gloucester in charge of the Earl of Kent and 
Sir Thomas Percy, who conveyed him direct to Calais. At Calais, 
Gloucester was in the keeping of its captain, the Earl of Nottingham, a 
prominent partisan of the King. Gloucester was thus shut off from the 
world under the order of his nephew, King Richard II. The King here 
sacrificed for his own selfish purposes one who had been a guardian in 
his youth and one devoted his energies to guide him in the affairs of 
his government. The world has never known by what means he 
perished. In the first parliament of Henry IV a certain John Halle, 
a former servant of Nottingham, swore that Gloucester, under orders 
from the King, had been smothered beneath a feather bed in the year 
1397, in a house in Calais, called the Prince's Inn, by William Serle, a 
servant of Richard's chamber and several esquires and valets of the Earl 
of Nottingham and Rutland. Halle, who kept the door, was executed, 
and though he was not publicly examined, there seems to be no doubt 
that the main features of 'his story are true. Serle, falling into the hands 
of Henry, in 1404, suffered the same fate. VI. — Isabella, m. Ingclram de

Gloucester, who was the youngest son of Edward the III. He inherited 
a number of large estates and became the owner of real estate in all

recognition and full recompense for his services. He was killed at the

time estranged from Queen Margaret for the dismissal of his step 
brothers from their ofifices. But on the whole, his sympathies were 
with the royal parties. He had ideas of holding the balance of power 
between Margaret and the Duke of York. Humphrey was perhaps the 
greatest landholder in England. His estates lay all over central 
England from Holderness to Breeknoe, and from Stafford to Tunbridge.

XX ENGLISH HISTORY. 

John Neville's brother Alexander, was consecrated Archbishop of 
York at Westminster, June 4, 1374. His brother William was constable 
of Nottingham Castle. Neville was a friend of Wickliffe and one of the 
chiefest of his supporters, the Lollards. John was twice married: first, 
to Maud Percy, the dau. of Lord Henry Percy ; and, secondly, to Eliz- 
abeth, the only dau. of William, Lord Latimer. He d. at Newcastle-on- 
Tyne, Oct. 17, 1388. In his will he was liberal in his donation to his 
employees and beneficent to the church. 

During his early years he proved himself to be a true and loyal 
knight, serving faithfully in all positions in which he was placed. He 
was closely associated with John of Gaunt at the siege of Brest. When 
scandals relating to Lancaster abounded, Neville did not escape the 
storm of national indignation which broke over the court in 1376. The 
wrath of the parliament was in the first place directed against Richard 
Lyons and William Latimer, whose seat was at Danby in Cleveland. 
He was a Yorkshire neighbor of Neville, who was to take Latimer's dau. 
for his second wife. Latimer induced Neville tO' use threatening lan- 
guage to the Commons on his behalf, but he was impeached in three 
courts for buying up the King's debts, like Latimer ; for suffering the 
troops to plunder and outrage at Southhampton in 1372 ; and for causing 
the loss of several Breton fortresses by neglecting to supply the full force 
of men he had undertaken to furnish. Against the two latter charges 
he defended himself with some force. On the first count, two accusa- 
tions were brought against him, one of which the complainant attempted 
to withdraw at the last moment. It looks as if he had been tampered 
with by the accused or his friends. In 1378, he was sent as the King's 
lieutenant to Aquitaine, to treat with the King of Arragon, and was 
ordered to send a force to aid the King of Navarre, against Henry of 
Castile, whose throne was claimed by John of Gaunt. He is credited 
with having recovered eighty-three towns, castles, and forts during his 
lieutenancy. During the remaining years of his life he was constantly 
employed on the Scottish border as warden. His last days were em- 
bittered by the misfortunes of his brother, Archbishop Alexander, who, 
in 1387, was driven from his See and country. As late as March 20, 
1388, he was placed in commission to treat for peace with Scotland.

Sixth BARON NEVILLE. Ralpli Neville, sixth "I'.aron Neville 
and first Earl of Westmoreland, eldest son of Raby and Maud I'ercy, 
dau. of Henry Percy, who d. in 1352. In 1380, in his sixteenth year, he 
entered the service, in the French expedition under the King's uncle, 
Thomas of Woodstock, Earl of Buckingham, afterwards Duke of Glou- 
cester, who knighted him. In 1384 he was associated with his father in 
receiving the last instalments of David Bruce's ransom, in 1385 he was 
appointed joint governor of Castile, with the eldest son of Lord Clifford. 
On the death of his father in 1388. at the age of twenty-four, he became 
Baron of Raby. On the 24th of May, 1389. he was made warden of the 
royal forests north of Trent. The following year he was employed in 
negotiations with Scotland. 

Neville's power was great in the north country where he. as Lord 
Raby and Brancepath in the bishopric of Durham and Middleham. and 
Sheriff Hutton in Yorkshire, was fullv the ecpial, simple baron though 
he was, of his cousin, the head of the Percies. His support was therefore 
worth securing by King Richard when, in \y)J. he took his revenge upon 
the Duke of Gloucester and other lords. The Lord of Raby was al- 
ready closely connected with tlie crown and tlie court partly by marriages 
and alliances. He had secured for his eldest son, John, the hand of Eliz- 
abeth, dau. of tlie King's step-brother, Tlioiuas Holland, Earl o{ Kent, 
who was deep in Richard's counsels, and he himself liad taken for liis 
second wife, Joan IJeaufort. dau. of John of Gaunt, the King's uncle. 
In the distribution of rewards among the King's supporters, on Sept. 
29. 1397. Neville was made Earl of Westmoreland. When Richard 
drove his brother-in-law Henry. I'.arl of Derby, out of tlie realm, and 
refused him possession of the Lancaster estates, on lolni of (iaunt's 
death, Westmoreland took sides against the King, and was one o\ the 
first to join Henry when he landed in ^'orkshire in July, 1300. He and 
his relative, Northumberland, who had joined Hem-y at the same time, 
represented the superior lords temporal in the parliamentary deputation, 
while on Sept. 29, 1399. received in the tower, kich.ard's renunciation 



XXU ENGLISH HISTORY. 

of the crown. The next day Westmoreland was granted for Hfe tlie 
office of Marshal of England, which had been held by the banished Duke 
of Norfolk. When Henry IV was crowned on the 13th of October, 
Westmoreland bore the small sceptre, his younger half brother, John 
Lord Latimer, who at tiie time was a minor, carried the sceptre royal. 
The garter vacated by the death of Edmund, Duke of York, in August, 
1402, was bestowed on Westmoreland. During the following year the 
Percies revolted and Westmoreland found an opportunity of weakening 
the great rival house in the north. One of Hotspur's grievances was 
the transference of his captaincy of the Roxbury Castle to Westmore- 
land in 1402. The day after the battle of Shrewsbury, in which Hotspur 
was slain, Henry wrote to Westmoreland and other Yorkshire chiefs, 
charging them to levy troops and intercept tlie Earl of Northumberland, 
who was marching from the north, Westmoreland drove the old Earl 
back to Warkworth and sent an urgent message to Henry, advising him 
to come into the north, where reports of his death were being circulated 
by the Percies. The King came and three days later transferred the 
wardenship which Northumberland had held since 1399, to Westmore- 
land. On his return south, Henry directed Westmoreland and his 
brother, Lord Furnival, to secure the surrender of the Percy castles. 
Soon after Northumberland was pardoned by the King and reconciled 
to Westmoreland. Westmoreland and Somerset were the only two 
Earls in the coiuicil of twenty-two whom, the King was induced, by the 
urgency of the Commons, tO' designate in parliament as his regular ad- 
visors. 

Northumberland's reconciliation was not sincere. In 1405 he was 
again in revolt and remembering how his plans had failed and how he 
had been foiled by Westmoreland, two years before, he began with an 
attempt to get his cousin into his power bv surprise. Westmoreland 
happened to be staying in a castle belonging to Sir Ralph Eure when 
it was suddenly beset one night by Northumberland at the head of four 
hundred men. But Westmoreland had received timely warning and 
was already flown. The flame of rebellion broke out in three diiTerent 
points. Northumberland was moving from the north to effect a junc- 
tion with Sir Johh Faucenburg and other Cleveland connections of the 
Percies and Mowbrays who were in arms, and with youthful Thomas 
Mowbray, Earl Marshal and Archbishop Scrope, who raised a large 
force in York and advanced northward. One of Mowbray's grievances 
was that the office of Marshal of England had been given to Westmore- 
land and that he therefore had an additional spur to prompt action 



ENGLTSir iriSTORV. XXlll 

against the threatening combination. Taking witli liini the young 
Prince John, lie threw liirnseU' l)ct\veen the two main bodies of rebels 
and routed the Cleveland force and intercepted the Archbishop and 
Mowbray little more than five miles north of York. Westmoreland 
finding himself the weaker in numl^ers had to recourse to strategem. 

Explanations were exchanged between the two camps and West- 
moreland expressing approval of the articles of grievance submitted to 
him by Scropy. invited the Archbishop and Earl Marshal to a persoiial 
conference. They met with equal retinues between the two camps. 
Westmoreland declared their demands most reasonable and promised, 
to use his influence with the King. They there joyfully shook hands 
over the understanding. The unsuspecting archbishop w^as now easily 
induced to dismiss his followers with the cheerful news. As soon as 
they were dispersed \\ estmoreland laid hands upon Scrope and Mowbrav 
and soon after handed them to the King, under whose order they were 
executed. The crisis over, Westmoreland returned to his employment, 
associating with him his eldest son, John, and during the rest of the 
reign was constantly engaged on the frontiers. He had made himself 
one of the great props of liis brother-in-law's throne. Two of his 
brothcTS.Lord Furnival, who for a time was war-tredsuirer, and Lord Lati- 
mer w'ere Peers, and towards the close of the reign he began to make 
those fortunate marriages for his numerous family by his second 
marriage, which enabled the younger branch of Neville to play so d.e- 
cisive a part in after years. One of the earliest of these marriages was 
that of his dan. Catherine in 1412 to the young John Mow'bray. brother 
of the unfortunate Earl Marshal, who had been entrusted to his guai'l- 
ianship by the King. Westmoreland d. Oct. i, 1425. His wife. Catha-

was sent as envoy extraordinary to James \'I of Scotland, to protest 
against his leniency towards persons who were known to be in league 
with Spain, and to inform him that Elizabeth would resist the lands of 
any Spanish troops in Scotland. In June, 1598, he was sent as a com- 
mercial agent to Denmark. He retired in 1600 to Cuernsey, where for 
a few months he was persuaded to act as deputy governor. In June, 
1602, he was appointed governor of Wales, h'our months after, Cham- 
berlain wrote, "Lord Zouche ])lays rex in Wales with ]n>{\\ council and

vested in Lord De la Warr's expedition In 1619 he sent the pinnace 
"The Silver Falcon," to Virginia, and on November 3, 1620, was ap- 
pointed chairman of the New England Council. He was a fearless ad- 
vocate of the established church and a strong defender of its faith and 
bitter in his denunciation of all sets averse to its rulings. It was with 
such a power that the Pilgrims in coming to America in 1620 had to con- 
tend. John Dunham, one of their number, was a distant relative to 
Edward Zouche, and had separated from the established church. He 
was placed in continual fear of his relatives. He shielded himself and 
was concealed by his friends by assuming the name of John Goodman, 
which he retained until after the death of King James. 

PERCY FAMILY. Henry, the first Ba'ron of Arnwick, was b. 
in 1272. He was the son of Henry, the seventh baron of Percy and 
Eleanor, dau. of Earl of Warren. He at first sided with the barons 
and afterwards with the King, and d. in 1272. His grandfather, William 
Percy, was the sixth Baron of Percy. His wife was a dau. of Ingelram 
de Baliol. Henry m. Eleanor, a dau. of John Fitzalen. He was the 
virtual founder of the historic house of Percy, which before his time 
had been chiefly connected with Yorkshire. He is described as being- 
prominent for skill in tournaments and more famous than any of his 
ancestors. In military afifairs he took a leading part. He was present 
with the Prince of Wales and the subjective of Wales, when Edward the 
first created on his son the title of Prince of Wales, which has ever since 
been borne by the eldest son of the sovereign of England. In parlia- 
ment he was a participant in founding permanent legal institutions 
vvhich have ever since been spoken of with respect. He was active in 
lessening public expenditure. He d. in 1315. 

Henry Percy, second Baron Percy of Arnwick, b. in 1.299, was 
elder son of Henry Percy, first Baron. He was with Thomas of Lan- 
caster, 21 st of May, 1321. He had many engagements against the 
Scots. In 1335 he defeated them at Redesdale and in the following 
year he took part in Edward's invasion of Scotland, advancing from 
Berwick in company with Baliol. During the same year he was with 
Edward HI at Perth. In 1338 he was sent to beseige Dunbar. In 
nearly every year after he was in the field or on commission for ne- 
gotiating with Edward's opponents.' It was through him and his father 
that the Percies became the hereditary guardians of the north and the 
scourge of Scotland. He m. Idona Clifford, dau. of Robert, who d.

fourth Baron of Raby. She had been m. to William Lord Ross of 
Helmsley. At the time he was married he was a leader of troops in the 
French war. He was knighted before 1360. In 1362 he was appointed 
to treat with David Bruce, he being then a warden toward Scotland. 
In the death of his father he succeeded to his barony. In 1369 he was 
ordered to proceed with Duke of Lancaster to Calais. In 1373 he 
bought the constableship of Melford Castle. Northumberland, of the 
crowns and the wardenship of the lands of the heirs of the Earl of Athol. 
In common with Lancaster he took up the case of WycklifT, and when 
on 19th of Feb., 1377, Wycklifif was sunmioned before the Inshops, at 
•St. Paul's, Percy walked .before him as marshal, and used violence to 
the people, in order to clear the way through the crowd. The bishop 
declared that he would have no such doings in the church. An alterca- 
tion ensued. Wlien the la(l\-chapel was searched, Perc\- demanded that 
V/ycklifTe should ])e allowed to sit before his judges, saying thai the 
more the charges were that he had to answer, the more need he had of 
a comfortable seat; in this the bishops and he came to high words. On 
that day he and Lancaster had advised the King to supersede the ma\or 
by appointing a mayor over the city and to authorize the marshal to 
execute his office within the city; and this, together with tlicir insults 
to the bishops, greatly excited the citizens against tlieni. Lord h'ilz- 
v/alter appeared before the connnon council and declared that a ])risoner 
was detained in the marshal's house contrary to law, and warned the 
citizens that if they let such things pass, they would live to repent it. 



XXVlll ENGLISH HISTORY. 

The citizens took arms, broke into the marshal's ofifice, brought out the 
prisoners, burnt the stocks in which he had been set, and searclied 
every room to find the marshaL Not finding- him, they rushed to the 
duke's palace, thinking to find him there. Percy and the Duke were 
dining together at the home of a certain William Ypres. They were 
warned of their danger by one of the duke's knights and escaped to 
the house of the Princess of Wales, who gave them shelter. When a 
day or two later Percy returned to parliament he went to Westminister 
attended by an armed retinue. A short time after, Percy received a 
formal appointment as Marshal of England. 

Northumberland was magnificent in his daily life, gracious in man- 
ner, and given to courting popularity. Over a large part of England, 
where the feudal tie was stronger than in the south, he had almost 
kingly power; he kept great state, and was faithfully served by his 
knights and retainers. Prompt and fearless in war, he was the hero 
and champion of the English of the north in their almost ceaseless strife 
against the Scots. He probably desired good and vigorous govern- 
ment, and was not wholly insincere in his profession of anxiety for the 
public welfare. At the same time his actions were really the results of 
selfish motives, of ambition, jealous of the rival house of Neville, 
anger, pride or mortification. Though he was exceedingly crafty, his 
temper was violent and his policy of wisdom, proud, passionate and 
unstable, he was never to be relied on except when his own interests 
were to be served or his feelings gratified by his adherence to the cause 
he had adopted. No issue by second wife.

was an earnest worker in the Yorkist cause and as such an enemy to 
Henry of Lancaster who had ])een elevated to the throne. Hotspur 
was killed by the forces of the King in July 21. 1403, at vShrewsbury. 
Hotspur is the last and not the least in the long roll of chivalrous 
figures, whose prowess fills the pages of Froissart. He had the virtues 
and the defects of his class and time. A doughty fighter rather than 
a skillful soldier, he was instilled with stormy energy, passionate, and 
intolerant of the shadow of slight.

postponed their reformation for four generations. His son Henry \'

THE WENTWORTHS. The W'entworth's Nettlestead were de- 
scended from an ancient Yorkshire family, two branches of which were 
settled at Wentworth Woodhouse and North Elmsull. Thomas Went- 
worth, the great Earl of Strafford, belonged to the W^entworth W^ood- 
house. He was b. April 13, 1593. and was four years tne senior to 
Deacon John Dunham. He was the eldest son of Sir William Went- 
worth and Anne, dau. of Sir Robert Atkins of Gloucestershire. The 
Barons Wentworth and Earls of Cleveland were descended from a 
younger branch. 

John Wentworth of North Elmsall, Yorkshire, acquired the Manor 
of Nettlestead, Suffolk, from his wife, Margery, who was b. 1397, and 
d. in 1478. She was the dau. of Sir Philip De Spenser and his wife, 
Elizabeth Tibot, of Robert Tibot of the Lord of the Manor of Nettle- 
stead. Roger, the younger son of John Wentworth, who d. in 1452, 
had by his first wife, Henry, who d. in 1482, tb.e ancestor of the Went- 
worths of Gasfield, Essex, and by his second wife, the Wentworths of 
I Oxfordshire. Roger's eldest son, Philip, was the father of Sir.LIenry 
^Wentworth who d. in 1499. He was father of Margery, who m. Sir 
John Seymour, who^ d. in 1536, and the mother of Queen Jane Seymour, 
of Proctor Somerset, and grandmother of Edward VI. Sir Henry 
Wentworth's so'n, Richard, was sheriff of Norfolk and Suffolk in 1509- 
1517. He was knighted in 1512, was present at and served at the 
battle of Spurs in 15 13. was present at the Field of the Cloth of Gold in 
1520, and d. Oct. 17, 1528. Richard Wentworth m. Anne Tyrrell, and

Duke of Suffolk's expedititin into France, in 1523, and was knighted 
in the chapel of Roy on (Jet. 31, with his cousin, Edward Seymour, after- 
wards Duke of Somerset. In 1527 he was a member of the household 
of Henry VH's sister Mary, and on Oct 17, 1528, succeeded his father 
Richard at Nettlestead. He was returned as knight of the shire to the 
"Reformation" parliament, summoned to meet on Nov. 3rd, 1530, buc 
on Dec. 2, 1529, he was raised to the peerage as Baron Wentworth. He 
adopted, with apparent sincerity, Reformation principles and to his in- 
fluence John Bale attributed his conversion. Some time after he took 
some part in the proceedings against heretics, but probably with much 
reluctance. 

In 1530 he signed the peer's letter to the pope, requesting that 
Henry VIII's divorce from Catherine of Amazon might be granted, 
and in 1532 he attended the King on his visit to the Calais to meet 
Francis I. In May, 1536, he was one of the peers who tried and con- 
demned Annie Boleyn and in December, 1539, he was sent to Calais to 
receive Annie of Cleves. In July, 1549, he served under the ^Marquis 
of Northampton, against the insurgents in Norfolk, and in the follow- 
ing October he was one of the peers who under Warwick enlisted in 
overthrowing Somerset. He joined the conspirators in London on the 
9th, and henceforth sat as a member of the privy council. He was 
further rewarded by being appointed one of the six lords to attend on 
Edward VI, and on Feb. 2, 1550, when Warwick deprived the Catholic 
peers of their ofifices, Wentworth succeeded Arundel as Lord Chamber- 
lain of the household. He d. on Alarch 3, 1551.

THE DUNHAM FAMILY. 

"What is in a name? 
That, which is a rose. 
By any other name, would smell as sweet." 

— Shakespeare. 
In the history of the Dunhams, the names of some of the different 
branches are variously spelled. The Dunhams were English and as 
such they were subject to change the spelling of their names. No two 
counties in England have the same dialect, hence the places of residence 
have their influence on the pronunciation and spelling of their names. 
Where the tones of the voice are harsh, or guttural or nasal, there is 
a corresponding pronunciation and spelling of names. In the change 
of location, families thus change the pronunciation and the spelling of 
their names to conform with the orthoepy in vogue where they reside. 
In this way we can account for the change made in the spelling of 
surnames. 

The truth is, that our orthography was so long unsettled, that it 



ENGLISH HISTORY. XXXlll 

appears by the accounts of the various times, that persons were at a 
loss how to write their names and have written them variously. In- 
stances might be multiplied indefinitely, where individuals have shown 
themselves uncertain as to the spelling of their own names. The great 
poet's name appears Shakspere in the register of Stratford Church ; 
it is Shakspeare in the body of his will, but that very instrument is 
endorsed "Mr. Shakspere's will." He himself has written his name in 
two different ways, Shakspeare and Shakspere. Mr. Colman says, the 
poet's name in his own country is pronounced with the first "a"' short, 
which accounts for the mode of writing the name, and proves that the 
orthoepy rather than the orthography of a person's name was regarded. 

As late as 1660 a Dr. Croone was at such a loss to have his name 
pronounced correctly, that he tried six different ways of writing it as 
appears by printed books : Cron, Crone, Croone, Croon and Croone ; 
all of which appear under his own hand, as he wrote it differently at 
different periods of his life. As the Dunhams changed their residences 
to different parts of England, we find a diversity in the spelling of their 
surnames. Thus in Kent County, Denhams ; in Devonshire, Douhams ; 
in Norfolk, Downham : in Nottingham, Dunham and Douham ; and in 
Dorsetshire, Dynham ; all of which represent different branches of the 
same families, but in different localities. Sir John Dunham, of Dunham 
on the Trent, wrote his name both Dunham and Douham. Douham, 
perhaps, as to his origin and Dunham as to his residence. 

Deacon John Dunham was variously called in the transfer of 
property. His son Thomas took the name of Donham, his son 
Jonathan, who settled in Xew Jersey, continued the name and his 
descendants spell their names Donham. Deacon John's grandson, 
Eleazer, spelled his name Donham; others of his descendants changed 
their names. One branch changed their surnames to Denhams. The 
cause of this, appears to have come through Capt. Corneilus Dunham, 
a mariner. When in England, he was in search of his English ancestry 
and being in a part of the country where the Denhams resided, he was 
told that his name should have beeh Denham and that he must be a 
descendant of Sir John Denham. He had prepared a copy of his coat 
of arms and brought it to this country. The news was broadcast that 
the Dunhams should write their names Denham. There was no search 
made, for there was no record of descent and it is probable that Sir 
John Denham was from the same stock from which Deacon John 
Dunham descended. 



XXxiv ENGLISH HISTORY. 

ORIGIN OF THE DUNHAM FAMILY. 

It is immaterial which of the different names the several families 
adopted, and in tracing their pedigree there iiiiist be records or some 
subsidiary data to show a continuous descent. The great length of time 
and the scarcity of reliable data intervening since the first appearance 
of the Dunhams in England, render it a very difificult task to present 
a record that will be beyond criticism. This is impossible and all that 
can be done is to announce the facts and data discovered after a critical 
research in the history of the family, leaving it to the judgment of the 
interested parties to draw their conclusions. The information given is 
from the most reliable authority, and in securing this, the compiler 
started with the traditions of his family handed down through succes- 
sive generations and with these he sought historical data to establish 
their correctness. 

DUNHAMS. The origin of a family is not established by tradi- 
tion or by any fanciful hypothesis. Both have their fpllowers. Each 
seeking some facts that will strengthen them in their opinions. It is 
unnecessary to present any of these theories, as they are as varied as 
the famiHes are numerous. All that can be done is to locate the 
earliest projenitor of the family, as made known in official documents, 
and then study the circumstances, which might lead them to settle. If 
the records are continuous from this early period, down to the present 
time, the student will be assured that his efforts have not been without 
reward. 

The earliest record of the Donhams is that of Rychert Donham, 
who was b. in 1294, and at an early date settled in Devonshire. This 
county, on the English Channel, was in constant intercourse with the 
inhabitants of continental Europe. It was engaged in raising she'ep 
and the manufacture of woolen fabrics. With these goods there was 
an extended trade with Spain in the fourteenth century. There was 
a friendly intercourse between the people. Rychert Donham may have 
been a Spanish adventurer. He accumulated a large fortune and 
bought- a large landed estate in Beaminster, County Sommerset. His 
son Robert was b. in Devonshire, in 13 18, where his family m. into 
English families and became loyal subjects of England, and were its 
ardent supporters. His sons, Geoffryde, b. 1350, and John, b. 1351, 
removed to Norfolkshire, and founded the town of Norwich and Great 
Dunham in that county. His dau., Elizabeth, b. 1345, at Beaminster, 
where she remained with and inherited the estate of her grandfather. 



ENGLISH HISTORY. XXXV 

■She was twice married : first, to Maltravers, and second, to Humphrey 
Stafford. "Tlie Silver TTand," sheriff of Dorset and Sommersetshires. 
Her brother RpJiert, b. 1348, remained in Devonshire, where his son 
Gregoire, was b. in 1382, anrl m. KHzal)eth Maryuge of Danby. His 
youngest son, Rol)ert, was 1). in 1430. It may have been through the 

■' "marriage of his aunt Ehzabeth to Humphrey Stafford that he m. Mar- 
garet, the dau. of Sir Humphrey Stafford. She was b. in 1435. Her 
grandfather, E<hmmd Stafford, was a nephew of Humphrey Stafford, 
"The Silver Hand." 

Robert Dunham's brother John, a Devonshire Squire, in 1459, 
espoused the Yorkist cause against Henry VH. He made himself 
conspicuous in the arrest of Lord Rivers, one of the generals com- 
manding the opposing army. The Yorkist forces were at Calais, and the 
King's were across the strait at Sandwich. John Dunham crossed the 
sea at night and arriving at Sandwich, between four and five, on a dark 
winter morning, soon after Christmas, seized Lord Rivers in his bed, 
won the town, took the best ships lying in the harbor and carried Rivers 
and his son across to Calais. This act led to the defeat of the royal 
forces July 2, 1460. CHILDREN OF ROBERT DUNHAM. 1). 1430.

in 1568, while a small scjuadron, consisting of forty vessels, English 
and Flemish, commanded by Lord Seymoiu', lav off Dunkirk to in- 
tercept the opposing force. All the Protestant powers of Europe re- 
garded the enterprise as the critical period which was to decide for 
ever the fate of their religion. William Bergh, b. 1536, in Devonshire, 
a navigator and author, in 1587, under Sir Francis Drake, destroyed 100 
vessels at Cadiz. His brother, Stephen Bergh. was a navigator and

Wentworth, in 1529, was styled the "Knight of the Reformation;" in 
1550 he was granted the manor of Hocking and Stepney. He then re- 
sided in Scrooby, where his dau. Elizabeth was m. to Ralph Dunham 
in or about 1556. Issue: I. — Thomas was b. about 1560. There is 
no record of 'his marriage. His son, John, was 1). in Scrooby, in 1589,' 
and his son, Robert, in London in 1605. Thomas Dunham, being im- 
bued with the religious instructions of his mother, was inclined to side 
with the Reformers. At this time the Anglican Reformatit)n was at 
its height against the Puritans and Catholics, while the Catholics were 
ex-communicated from England by the I'Jeformers, the Puritans, who 
were compelled to act secretly, gained constantly in power. In the 
neighljorhood of Scrooby the power of the Reformers was very power- 
ful. Thomas felt it to such a degree, that he was ultimately compelled 
to remove to London where 'his son Robert was i). in 1005. It may be 
that this is the reason that much of the history of his family is obscure. 
Even in London, the spirit of persecution was followed up as late as 
1635, for this year Robert was trans])orted for his religious sentiment 
to Virginia. Thomas d. in London, and l\ol)eri, in i')35, was trans- 
ported to Virginia, where lie ina\ have d. as their appears to be no

The Dunhams and collateral branches of the family were ardent 
supporters of the Established Church and l)itter opponents of the 
Puritans. Sir John Zouche, from whom Sir John Dunham was a 
descendant, was of this class. Sir Edmund Zouche, Counsellor of King 
James I, was a violent persecutor of the Dissenters. 

Edmund Zouche was a contemporary of Deacon John Dunham. 
He was b. in 1586, and consequently of the same age with that of 
Deacon John Dunham. They were both of the same degree 
of descent from Lord John Zouche. Edmund Zouche was an 
ardent supporter of the Established Church, while Thoinas "Dunham 
was a strong advocate of the Puritan religion. In 1586, Edmund 
Zouche was one of the Peers who tried Mary, Queen of Scots. 
In 1602 he was President of Wales. In 1609 he was a member of the 
council of the Virginia Company. Thomas West, the son of Thomas 
West, who m. Annie, dau. of Thomas Knyvellys, the 12th Baron de la 
Warre, a member of Elizabeth Privy Council, was also a member of 
the Virginia Company. On the 28th of February, West was appointed 
Governor of Virginia for life. In March he sailed for Virginia with 
150 emigrants. He arrived on the loth of June, just in time to prevent 
despersion of the struggling colony. He was appointed by the council 
and sent out two expeditions for food. In July he impressed the 
English government of the need of liberal support for the colonists and 
of care in their selection. In 161 1 he gave a flattering report of the 
colony. In 1617 he was taken sick and died in Virginia in 1618. He 
was the founder of V^irginia. When he was taken sick in 1617 
Edmund Zouche invested 100 lbs. on account of Lord de la Warre's 
expedition. In 1619 he sent his pinnace, the "Silver Falcon," to Vir- 
ginia. In 1620 under the "Great Patent of New England," the King, 
■on the third of November in the i8th year of his reign, appointed 
Edmund Lord Zouche, commissioner for settling New England. 

When John Dunham escaped to Holland in 1608, his brother 
Robert was five years of age. What became of Robert is not known. 
During the life of Elder Brewster he continued, while in America, his

love for and care of liis jirotege, John Dnnliam. By his advice, the 
name of John Goothnan was given to John Dunham. Among the lead- 
ing men of the colony we find John Goodman and Elder Brewster, their 
village lots adjacent. This Jt>hn Goodman was no other than John 
Dunham. As soon as advisable, John Dunham, was made deacon under 
him. J I was through the influence of Elder Brewster that William 
Bradford was created the successor of (iovernor Carver. 

In consequence of the cloak thrown over John Dunham by his 
friends to protect and ])reserve him, his posterity have been somewhat 
diverted from the study of his origin and blinded as to the time of his 
imigrating to Plymouth. The discrepancies made by historians, their 
ignorance of his origin and associating his name with that of John 
Goodman in some transactions, have tended to confuse them in their 
researches. Deacon John Dunham was b. in Scrooby, England, in 
1589. He m. Abigail Wood. She is supposed to be descended from 
Robert Wood, who m. Alison Dunham, widow of John Dunham. Her 
brother John Wood owned property in TMymouth adjoining that of 
Deacon John Dunham's. According to early records of Plxnionth 
Colony, Deacon John Dunham "d. about fourscore years, on the 
second of March, 1668-9, John Dunham, Elder. He was an ai)i)r()ved 
servant of God and a useful man in his place, being a deacon in the 
church at Plymouth." His will was made Jan. 25, 1668-9. 1" ^be same

SCROOBY IN NOTTINGHAM. While there is a large amount 
of local and general history in the battle fought by llie .Americans at 
the battle of Lexington on the 19th of April. 1775, there is a corre- 
sponding interest in England in the struggle of settlers from Scrooby, 
a colony, hailing from the historic village of Lexington in the County 
of Notting'ham, known more particularly as Laxton. To this day the 
earthworks and foundations of the demesnes of the Everinghams and 
the other great lords of Laxton. King John was very much attached 
to Laxton; he conferred on his favorite "Raufe the son of Steven, and 
to his wyfife," a charter conferring on him and his heirs the right to 
have all the fallen wood and ])ermissi()n to, ha\e ■"hdunds and dogs 
to hunt the hart, the ffox, the catt or llu' s(|nirreH" in the forest of

Sherwood. The last of the great family of De Caux, of Laxton, was a 
single woman who d. a century and a half ago. For many years before 
her death she gleaned on the broad fields that had once been the land 
of her ancestors. 

A collateral branch was De Roos. Humphrey De Roos about the 
end of the 15th century m. Margaret Lyne, of Northampton. Margaret 
had a good estate made over to trustees for her use, it was good and 
lawful estate, in fee simple, containing many acres adjoining Laxton. 
The trustees of this estate were Sir John Dunham, Sir Edward Fielding, 
Sir John Dixby and William Roos. As the manor of Laxton was held 
of the King in Chief, it implies that all connected with these arrange- 
ments must have been persons of considerable position. A remark 
which applies to Sir John Dunham, who d. in 1545. there is positive in- 
formation that another of this name d. Alay 9, 1525, having long enjoyed 
the manor of Kirklington. His property in Kirklington, Hockerton 
Edinglary, consisted of 30 messuages, 7 cottages, 500 acres of land, 200 
acres of meadow, 40 acres of Wood and rents. The reversion of this 
property, after his death, was to a Sir John Dunham, and thus with 
regard to property of other messuages and some other 300 acres in 
other parts of Notte. In default of issue, to the heirs of his body, law- 
fully begotten, this property was to go to the right heirs wherever they 
might be. The first property above mentioned under the Archbishop 
of York, the second under Sir Edmond de Bergh, a distant relative of 
Elizabeth Bowett, a wife of Sir John Dunham. 

Four years after the death of Sir John Dunham, May 9, 1524, his 
son, Sir John Dunham, was associated with his brothers-in-law, Rychart 
Basset, Colston Basset, John Wellingby, as trustees of an estate in law, 
in fee simple and other lands and tenements than those already settled 
to the yearly value of £93-6-8 in favor of one of the Stanhopes. The 
estates out of which the £93-6-8 came appear to have been constantly 
in litigation. The residence of the ancestors of John Dunham was in 
the village of Scrooby. Sir Thomas VVentworth, whose dau. m. John 
Dunham's grandfather, resided here. Wentworth was styled the 
"Knight of the Reformation." He was compelled, with reluctance, to 
concede to the authority of the Established Churc'h, still he privately 
believed in the teachings of the Reformers, and instilled in the minds 
of his children the truths and principles advocated by them. His in- 
fluence extended to succeeding generations, while on the other hand the 
Dunhams were strong adherents and supporters of the Established 



ENGLISH HISTORY. xli 

Churcli. John Dunham, when a youth, was left to adopt one of the 
two positions for his guidance through life. 

In t'he village of Scrooby, William Brewster was b. in 15O0, who 
at an early age entered the employ of the Puritan, William Davidson. 
Ambassador of Queen Elizabeth to Holland. After the Queen's death, 
Brewster returned to his native town and was made postmaster of the 
place. It was under his influence that the first congregation of the 
Pilgrims was formed. In the old manor house gradually gathered a 
litfle congregation, that hung with wrapt attention on the prayers and 
prophesying of William Brewster. He was educated at Cambridge and 
was fully imbued with Puritan theology. The congreg^ation gathered 
so regularly as to require the authority and oversight of a regular 
pastor. Brewster would not administer the Holy Sacraments. 

Not far from Scrooby, in the town of Babworth, lived a gray- 
haired old man, by the name of Richard Clifton, who had been the 
rector of the church in that place, but had embraced the Puritan senti- 
ments ; he came and was chosen pastor of the congregation that met at 
Brew^ster's house. He had such a gift of exhortation and sanctity, 
that he drew to him devout people from the nearest towns in the neig'h- 
borhood. Rev. Richard Clifton had associated with him. Rev. John 
Robinson, of Yarmouth, a preacher of the Established Church, who 
with his friends had been harassed for non-conformity, who seeking 
obscurity and quiet and unmolested worship of God, found his way to 
Scrooby. 

John Dunham, then a youth of fourteen years of age, was under 
these religious instructions ; he accepted the truth as propounded by his 
pastors and placed himself under the guidance of Elder William Brew- 
ster. There is no evidence of his having accjuired much of a scholastic 
education; he was firm in his convictions, and l;ecame earnest in his 
devotion to his church duties. When the church decided to remove to 
Holland, in 1607, when he was eighteen years old, he g"ave himself un- 
reluctantly to the direction of his church of^cials. They fully under- 
stood the antipathy of many of his relatives, who were high officials of 
the government, to the non-comformist and bestowed on him the name 
of "John Goodman." in order that he might be shielded and protected 
from their search and pursuit. He thus took the assumed name and 
for a few years after his arrival in America he was recognized by 
that name. 

THE SCROOBY CONGREGATION. During ihe latter part of 
the reign of Elizabeth, a s])irii of discontent prevailed among the 



xlii ENGLISH HISTORY. 

people, in matters pertaining to religious ceremonies and other obser- 
vances in the counties of Nottingham, York and Lincoln. In the little 
village of Scrooby, located at the intersection of these counties on the 
Idle river, was discussed the primitive or apostolic worship and purity 
in religion. These earnest thinkers were the originators of the Pilgrim 
church. Here in the old manor house gradually gathered a little con- 
gregation that hung with wrapt attention on the prayers and prophesy- 
ing of William Brewster. The congregation gathered so regularly as 
to require the authority and oversight of a regular pastor. Brewster 
would not administer the Holy Sacrament. Not far from Scrooby in 
the town of Babworth lived a gray-haired old man by the name of 
Richard Clifton, w'ho had been the rector of a church in that place, but 
had embraced Puritan sentiments. He came and was chosen pastor of 
the congregation, that met at Brewster's house ; such was his gift of 
exhortation and sanctity, that he drew to him devout people from many 
towns in the neighborhood. The young men were eager to learn the 
truth as he expounded it and through the tender care of their leader, 
William Brewster, were converted and became earnest Christians and 
fearless advocates of the cause which they had espoused. Prominent 
among these youth, W'illiam Bradford, afterwards Governor of Ply- 
mouth Colony ; at this time he was a- youth of fourteen years of age. 
He came from Ansterfield, a neighboring town, ui Lincolnshire. His 
father d. when he was only two years old. He was left in charge of 
two uncles. The sermons of Clifton made an indellible impression on 
his soul. His uncles vainly opposed the course he was taking. He 
was only eighteen years of age when the Pilgrims made their first at- 
tempt to emigrate to Holland. He sought to avoid the vigilance of 
his uncles in making his escape. He was betrayed and thrown into 
prison. He, however, evaded the ofTficers and was successful, in 1608, in 
sailing, with his associates, to Holland. A special Providence lead him 
on as a stay and guide to that band which laid the foundation of a 
mighty empire. In the same congregation was John Dunham, an- 
other youth, who from his earliest youth, had been under the influence 
and guidance of William Brewster, who was the postmaster of Scrooby 
until the removal of the congregation to Holland. Brewster was b. in 
1560 and d. at Plymouth, April 16, 1644. He had been in the service 
of Puritan William Davison, Ambassador to the Netherlands, under- 
Queen Ehzabeth. After her death, Brewster returned to Scrooby and 
gave much of his time to religious matters. Being deeply interested 
in file subject and possessing deep convictions through his daily life and 



ENGLISH HISTORY. xliii 

conduct he l)ecaine a power over his associates. The youtli were closely 
drawn tc^ him and confided in his judgment. P)y him was John Dun- 
ham's religious character moulded ; by him was he guided in his re- 
moving to Holland and New England. The high character of his 
familv, many whom were bitter enemies of Dissenter, demanded ex- 
treme measures by his frientls in the congregation to shield him from his 
pursuers. During the time of James I reigned, he bore the name of 
John Goodman, under this name he was known in llDlland and for a 
few years in New England. He sailed in the Mayflower and landed at 
Plymouth in Dec. 22, 1620. In the spring of 1621, his name is dropped 
and historians state that he was among those who had d. during the 
winter. This is a mistake ; he did not die at that time, for the same 
historians state, he in the distribution of U^s afterwards, was given 
a lot next to that of his old teacher and guide. Elder William Brewster." 
It is stated it was allotted to John Goodman," but he is designated as 
among the dead in 1621. This, alone, is convincing that there was no 
settler at that time by the name of Goodman, nor does his name appear 
afterwards as among the early settlers. r>ut the name of John Dunham 
does appear among the prominent men and as i)eing in the service of 
tlie colony for many years. In the sale of cattle historians inform us 
that his were demoninated "Goodman's Steers." Again he is frec[uently 
called by them Goodman Dunham. We see that the name Goodman 
in the early days of the colony associated with that pf Dunham. Why? 
The history of John Dunham's family explains t'his. Most of his kins- 
men belonged to the Established Church and were bitterly opposed to 
the dissenters. So that John Dunham would suffer should they be able 
to detect and arrest him, inasmuch as they were high in the administra- 
tion of the government. Even Sir Edmund Zouche was chairman of 
the conmiission to settle Virginia and New England Colonies was dis- 
tantly connected with his family. Measures were taken to shield John 
Dunham from the officers, who were in i)ursuit of him. l-'or tliis \)\\x- 
pose he was given or he assumed the name of "John (io^xlman." The 
new colony of Pl^inouth was under the surveilance of the English com- 
mission. So that all the acts of tlie early settlers were known to the 
board. The Pilgrims feared the liritish jyower, and were careful in not 
antagonizing them. Hence the name adapted b\ John Dunham in es- 
caping to Holland was continut'd on the arrival of the I'ilgrims at 1'1\- 
moulh. Massachusetts. If, perchanoi.', his pursuers I)eli(,'\-cd that hi,- was 
John (loodman, whom the records at the earliest date report death 
search would cease. It is supposed that he continuiMJ the use of the 



xliv ENGLISH HISTORY. 

name John Goodman up to the death of James I in 1625. This is the 
reason why the early historians in speaking of John Dunham, use the 
name of John Goodman," supposing that he would permanently adopt it. 
This he did not do, for as soon as the colony was duly organized we 
find him in 1632 purchasing in his name real estate, and in 1633 he be- 
came a freeman. Upon the formation of a permanent government, in 
1639, he was then elected deputy of Plymouth colony, which olifice he 
held for 21 years. He continued an active member of the church, and 
was elected in 1633, deacon under Elder Brewster, which position he 
afterwards held, during the rest of his life. Some historians not being 
able to ascertain the date of John Dunham's arrival into Plymouth, 
give it 1633, the year in which he became a freemim. He had been in 
the countrv since 1620. But in 1633 he then felt assured of his safety 
and openly made known his identity. 

John Dunham was a descendant of Thomas Wentworth known as 
the "Knight of the Reformation," and his own family were friends of 
the dissenters. After the removal of Jolin Dunham, Thomas Dunham, 
his father, removed to London, from which his son, Robert, in 1635, 
was transported in the ship "George" to Virginia, for his religious 
wandering. When John Dunham escaped to Holland, in 1608, his 
brother Robert was five years of age. What became of Robert is not 
known. During the life of Elder Brewster he continued, while in 
America, his love for and care of his protege, John Dunham. By his ad- 
vice, the name John Goodman was given to John Dunham. Among the 
leading men of the colony we find John Goodman and Elder Brewster 
own village lots adjacent. This John Goodman was no other but John 
Dunham. As soon as advisable, John Dunham was made deacon under 
him. It was through the intiuence of Elder Brewster, William Brad- 
ford was created the successor of Governor Carver. In consequence of 
the cloak thrown over John Dunham by his friends to protect and pre- 
serve him, his posterity have been diverted from the study of his origin, 
and blinded as to the time of his emigrating to Plymouth. The dis- 
crepancy made by historians, their ignorance of his origin and asso- 
ciating his name with that of John Goodman in seme transaction, have 
tended to confuse them in their researches. 

"THE REFORMATION IN ENGLAND.'" The struggle be- 
tween the old and new religion lasted long and raged fearfully in 
England and Scotland, and continued uninterruptedly, even down to 
the end of the 17th century, for Puritanism was a second Reformation; 
but it left, in the end, a very strong impression upon the character of 



ENGLISH HISTORY. xlv 

the nation and affected deeply its political and social institutions. In 
theology the English Protestants depended upon the ideas and principles 
of Calvin, and displayed great practical energy and power of organiza- 
tion. From the start it was a political as well as a religious movement, 
and hence afforded a wide scope to the corru])ting intluence of selfish 
ambition, and violent passion. In the English reformation we may 
distinguish them. 

DURING THE REIGN OF HENRY VIII, 1527 to 1547. 
Abolition of the Authority of the Pope. This was merely a negative 
and destructive process, which removed the outward obstructions and 
prepared the way for reform. Henry VIII cjuarreled with the Pope, not 
religiously or theologically, but purely on personal and selfish grounds, 
because the Pope properly refused his consent to his divorce from 
Catharine of Aragon and his marriage to Annie Boleyn. "The defender 
of the faith" — a title given to him by the Pope, for the defence of the 
seven sacraments against Luther — remained in the doctrine, and re- 
ligious sentiment, a Roman Catholic to the end of his life, and at his 
death the so-called bloody articles" which enjoined under the severest 
penalties the dogma of transubstantiation, auricular confession, private 
masses and the celibacy of the priesthood were yet in full bloom. The 
only point of real difference was the royal supremacy. He simply sub- 
stituted a domestic for a foreign and political for an ecclesiastical 
papacy, and punished with cruel severity Protestant as well as Roman 
Catholic dissenters, who dared to doubt his supreme leadership of the 
Church of England. While he thus destroyed the power of the 
Pope, and monasticism in England, a far deeper and more im- 
portant movement went on among the people under the influence of 
the revived traditions of Wycliffe and the Lollards, the writings of 
the contineiUal reformers and the English version of the scrii)tures 
commenced l)y 'J\vndale, carried on l\v Coverdale and revised l)y 
Cranmer. Soon after the commencement of the refcn-mation in I'^ng- 
land. in the year 1534, tlie Protestants were divided into two parties, 
one the followers of LuiIkt, and the other of Calvin. The former had 
chosen gradually, and almost imperceptibly, to recede from the Church 
of Rome, while the latter, more zealous and convinced of the importance 
of a thorough reformation, and at same time possessing nnich firmness 
and high notions of religious liberty, were for effecting a thorough 
change at once. What the others had done in the reformation fell far 
short of tlu'ir wishes. Tlie\ still saw sur])lict's, jjrintrd i)rayers, organs, 
bishops, and altars with most of the ])oinii, which had l)elonged to the 



xlvi ENGLISH HISTORY. 

papal churches and were but little impressed with the alterations of 
doctrines and creeds. 

DURING THE REIGN OF EDWARD \I, 1547 to 1553, the 
positive introduction of the reformation was made by the co-operation, 
mainly of the Duke of Somerset, protector and regent during the 
King's minority, and by Cranmer, Archbishop of Canterbury, who by 
his public subserviency to King Henry, had preserved the idea and 
hope of a reformation through the reign of terror. Cranmer was as- 
sisted in the work by Ridley and Latimer, and by several reformed 
diviners from the continent, whom he called to England. Calvin's 
advice was solicited by Somerset. The most important work during 
Edward's reign, and in fact of the whole reformation, next to the 
English version of the Bible, was the 42 articles of religion, subsequentlv 
reduced to 35, or a new and Calvinistic confession, and the book of 
Common Prayer," or a new directory of worship in the vernacular 
tongue, on the basis of the ancient Latin service, but with essential 
changes. These two standards of public doctrine and public worship 
have retained a remarkable hold upon the English nation. 

'DURING RELGN OF MARY, 1553 to 1558, an attempt to 
undo the reformation and restore the Roman Catholic religion and tue 
authority of the Pope was made by Mary and her friend. Cardinal Pole, 
who, after the deposition of Cranmer, was made Archbishop of Canter- 
bury. This Catholic interim did more to consolidate the reformation 
in England than Henry and Edward. Hundreds of martyrs fertilized 
the Protestant soil in this short reign, among them the three British 
Reforms, Cranmer, Ridley and Latimer, who were publicly burned at 
Oxford in 1556. Many others fled to the continent, especially to 
Geneva, Zurich and Frankfort-on-the-Main, where they were hospitably 
received and brought into closer contact with the Reformed churches 
of Switzerland and Germany. 

REIGN OF ELIZABETH, 1558 to 1603. The restoration and 
permanent establis'hment of the English Reformation. The Roman 
Catholic hierachy was replaced b}' a Protestant and the articles of 
religion and the Common Prayer book of the reign of Edward were 
introduced again after having been submitted to a revision. The 
ecclesiastical supremacy of the crown was likewise renewed but under 
a modified form, the Queen refusing the title, "Supreme Head" of the 
Church of England and choosing in its place the less objectionable title, 
"Supreme Governor." The convocation and parliament readilv 
sanctioned all these changes, but the English Church, as established by 



ENGLISH HISTORY. xlvil 

Elizabeth, was semi-Catholic in its form of prelatical government and 
liturgical worship, a sort of via media between Rome and Geneva. It 
suited the policy of the court and the taste of the majority of the 
English people, but was ofifensive to the severe school of strict 
Calvinists, who had returned from their continental exile. Hence the 
agitation in the l)osom of the Reformed Church of England and the 
growing conflict l)ctween the Episcopalian majority and the Puritan 
minority. Elizabeth's reign was equally intolerant against Puritan as 
against papal dissenters and passed the severest penalties against them. 
But while the Catholics was almost anniliilated in England, the Puritan 
party grew more powerful under the successors of Elizabeth and suc- 
ceeded in overthrowing the Episcopalian establishment, although it 
revived the shock. These troubles and agitations constitute the last 
stage in the history of the English reformation which, in some respects 
is the most important and interesting, but lies beyond the reformation. 

The PURITANS. The early' settlers of New England. In 
the reformation of the English church this class still saw 
surplices, printed prayers, organs, bishops, and altars, with most 
of the pomp which had JK'longed to the papal church, and were but 
little improved with the alterations, doctrines and creeds. Their plain- 
ness of dress, their gravit}' of deportment, the names of their children, 
borrowed from the scriptures, their daily religious conversation, their 
endeavors to expunge from the church all the inventions of men, and 
to introduce the "Scripture purity" acquired for them the name of 
Puritans. The reason assigned for leaving their own country and 
settling a wilderness were, that the ancient faith and true worship might 
be found inseparable companions in their practice, and that their 
posterity might be undefiled in religion. 

SEPARATISTS. In the year 1602, a number of people in the 
counties of Nottinghamshire. Lancashire and \'orkshire, b\- tlie preach- 
ing of the gospel became savingly accjuainted with tlie truth. Their 
ignorance, prejudices, and errors were so far removed, that they saw 
the vanity of their superstitions and sought more evangelical in- 
structions, and a inu'er church. A separation from tlic established 
church was the natural consec(uence. shaking off their ami-Christian 
chains, they resolved, whatever it should cost them lo cnjo\- libort}- 
of conscience on account ol ihiir klistance Irom each oilier. thc\'

xlviii ENGLISH HISTORY. 

"THE PILGRIM FATHERS." The Pilgrim Fathers were mostly 
residents of the ag-ricultural villages of Austerfield in Lincolnshire, 
Scrooby in Nottinghamshire and Bawtry in Yorkshire. The population 
occupied a happy medium between poverty and riches, but contained 
the elements for creating a mighty empire. They were a class of 
sturdy farmers with their families, who worked through the week and 
worshipped God, in neat attire when the Sabbath came. Away from 
court influence, away from'the town with its luxuries or its destitutions, 
they dwelt among the cornfields, the shops and kine, they read little, 
saved something from their hard earnings and thought somewhat of 
God and futurity. The English Church had been established, and con- 
formity with rights of worship was required by the Act of Parliament, 
and non-conformity was punished with fines and imprisonment. 
Wealth, rank, station and respectability were in the Established 
Church ; the throne and the aristocracy next formally allied with 
prelacy and they pressed down with a weight that either crushed non- 
conformity or ground it to the earth. 

The class which constituted the middle stratum of life, was made 
up mainly of the Anglo-Saxon element, there was a great number who 
desired a more ascetic religion and more morality than was to be found 
in the Established Church. Those who kept the Sabbath and prayed 
without reciting from the Prayer Book, but wrestled with God in 
secret prayer, were called Puritans. The I'ilgrim Fathers, while ad- 
hering to the teachings of the Puritans, strove for a separation of 
church and state and were designated as Separatists. The Pilgrims 
were not Puritans. It is said, that, in the vestibule of the House of 
Lords hangs a picture of "The Sailing of the Mayflower, "' which was 
formerly entitled "Departure of a Puritan I'amily for New England," 
the Commissioners on Decoration of the House after investigation 
changed the words "Puritan Family" to "Pilgrim Fathers." These 
Separatists had no visible organization, they sought safety in obscurity, 
a fitting tribute to the Pilgrim Father, Deacon John Dunham. 

THE DEPARTURE FOR HOLLAND. The old Manor house 
did not conceal the congregation verv long or shield its members from 
the tender mercies of the bishops and the officials of the Ecclesiastical 
Courts. They were fined, imprisoned and worried, until they finally 
resolved on a removal to Holland. They went in separate companies, 
first to A'msterdam ; they remained there alDout a year and then by the 
advice of their pastor they finally went to Leyden. It w^as in 1607 that 
they attempted to leave England for Holland, but they were prevented 



ENGLISH HISTORY. xHx 

by the civil officers, who kept the whole company under arrest for a 
month. The design was renewed and successfully carried out the next 
year. The aged pastor, Rev. Richard Clifton, died previous to their 
embarkation. A congregation of English Puritans, under the pastoral 
care of Rev. John Smith, had been organized at Amsterdam previous 
to the arrival of Robinson, but some dissension happening among them, 
it was dissolvt'd. Robinson feared the effects that might arise from 
such an example, and so he persuaded his church to remove to Leyden. 

LEYDEN, HOLLAND. The city of Leyden stands inward about 
fifteen miles on either side along the mouth of the Rhine River. The 
Rhine before it enters Leyden parts into two streams wdiich sweep 
around through opposite portions of the city and reunite near its centre. 
From these streams the canals circulate through the city, in all direc- 
tions, cutting it into immmerable islands. The houses in the city stand 
with their old gables looking toward the canals, with the eaves troughs 
projecting forward so far as to empty themselves into the water ; the 
streets are narrow and winding, and they are ke]:)t clean by stout w^omen 
and girls dashing over them endless pails of water. Rows of trees are 
planted along the banks of the canals. How significantly do the 
churches point their turrets upward above the masses of houses and 
how sweet is the tone of their chimes as they break out almost every 
hour, and thrill through the air and around the old gables and down 
the crooked lanes and along the lazy canal waters, sometimes sad and 
sometimes merry, sometimes loud and sometimes soft, keeping the 
whole city bathed in the atmosphere of fantastic sounds. During the 
year of 1611, we find the Pilgrims building within this city a building 
of considerable size with a tract of land around it. Within this they 
l)uild a number of little teni-ments in which ]:)rol)ably a majority of the 
congregation live, worshipping in the large parlor of their pastor's 
house. With four or five exceptions they apj)ear as mechanics. It is 
here that we find John Dunham beginning a life of toil. He learned 
the trade of a weaver. He and his associates were willing to work 
at anything which would give them a support. Such was their reputa- 
tion for honesty tliat any of their congregation, however poor, could 
o])tain \rn\u the Leyden merchants.

bath. They saw, that if they remained in Leyden, they should ulti- 
mately disappear, melting away as a soluble element in the foreign 
population, instead of establishing a church, that from small beginnings 
should grow mighty, and invite the poor and oppressed to its sheltering 
bosom. This was their fondest dream, not only to establish a true 
church for themselves, but one that should endure and be a blessing to 
all posterity. 

RE-EMIGRATION TO AMERICA. After a residence of eleven 
years a meeting of the congregation was held, at which meeting a 
majority of its members resolved to go to Virginia, and arrangements 
were accordingly made. The younger and more vigorous portion of 
the company, numbering about 120, were to go first; the Elder and 
the more infirm tarried behind and were to follow on when Providence 
prepared the way. John Dunham sailed with the company, but his 
wife was unable to accompany him. being compelled to remain with her 
infant son, who was born shortly before the departure for America. 
She quietly joined him at Plymouth as soon as she was in a condition 
to do so. On the 22d of July those selected, left Leyden by barge, 
passed through Delft into the Haven where the Speedwell lay ready 
to receive them ; they embarked and reached Southampton where they 
were met by the Mayflower. The company was distributed between 
the two vessels. The ships started together and sailed as far as Ply- 
mouth, England. The Speedwell having proven herself unseaworthy, 
some of her passengers were transferred to the Mayflower ; about 
twenty of her passengers would not re-embark. The Mayflower sailed 
on the 6th day of September, 1620, for Mrginia. The Pilgrims bid 
an everlasting farewell to England, and continued on their course to 
Virginia, but God in his providence shaped it otherwise, since Cape 
Cod projected'its encircling arm into the sea, and averted their course, 
and brought them safely into the harbor of Plymouth, December 22, 
1620. Robinson remained in Leyden in charge of the remnant of his 
congregation. He was never permitted to come to America. The 
jealous eye of King James and his bishops were upon the whole enter- 
prise watching all its movements. The officers and agents of the Vir- 
ginia Company had secret and positive orders to keep Robinson sepa- 
rated from the Pilgrim flock. Always longing to look once more upon 
the faces of those so cruelly parted from him at Delft Haven, he, yet, 
died without the sight. He died in Leyden, March i, 1625, being fifty 
years old. Not long after his death his widow and children emigrated 
to Plymouth, Massachusetts, where they joined their brethren who had 
preceded them.

ACCOUNT OF THE MAYFLOWER. On the 22d of Decem- 
ber, the Mayflower discharged its precious load of passengers on Ply- 
mouth Rock. With what reverence do we announce the fact. Wc 
revert to the days spent in the organization of the church at Scrooby 
and follow the congregation to Leyden. In the eleven years spent at 
Leyden what wonderful changes had taken place. New accessions had 
taken place and prominent among them was the reception of Myles 
Standish into the church ; he was serving his counfry in the armv at 
the Netherlands and was iiupressed with the character of the organiza- 
tion and became a great power in promoting its welfare. There w^ere 
many who came from England to swell the ranks of the Pilgrims. A 
great change had taken place in the members of the original church 
at Scrooby, their members had decrease-d, some of their children had 
gone astray, so that at the time of the embarkation at Leyden, there 
were but few of the original congregation left to emigrate to America, 
only Deacon John Dunham and Elder William Brewster, who were 
of the original congregation, .natives of Scrooby. All that came by the 
Mayflower were not connected with the church. 

The voyage was considered a hazardous under'taking and some 
reluctantly joined in the expedition, while others went out as servants 
to the leading men, so that the number of the early comers bv the 
Mayflower, through whose influence Plymouth Colony was established, 
was very small. Governor Bradford preserved and published the fol- 
lowing list of passengers who came by the Mayflower. In this list 
appears the name of "John Goodman ;" in the spring he is reported 
dead. This is incorrect. That name was assumed by Jolui Dunham 
as previously accounted for is a shield from his enemies. In stating 
that it was dropped was merely to announce that there was a John 
Goodman, who was not a passenger : being on English soil it was not 
safe to identify John Dunham. The announcement may have been to 
mislead his pursuers. The fact, however, remains that although dead, 
John Goodman is afterwards assigned a village lot. His lot is located 
next to that of Elder W^illiam IVewstcr, who is a life-long friend of 
Deacon John Dunham, and among the leading men of the settlement. 
This is improbable. Historians have tried to cover this up 1)\- as-

DEACON JOHN DUNHAM. 

"Plymouth Colonial Records" contain the names of many remarka- 
ble men who were pillars in the upbuilding and laying the foundation 
of this republic. A few of them have been selected and made con- 
spicuous in the annals of history, while others, ecjually worthy of the 
same honors, have been allowed to pass into oblivion. Not any has 
a more brilliant record than that of Deacon John Dunham. He sacri- 
ficed position in society, with its accompaniments, that he might devote 
his life to the welfare of his fellow-men. Many have attempted to give 
an account of his life, but have failed at the very threshold. This was 
due to the scarcity of records in establishing the date of his first arrival 
at Plymouth. This was the stepping-stone, for witliout it further re- 
search became discouraging. Still, a few determined kinsmen con- 
tinued their investigations and have secured many valuable facts which 
have added much towards discovering the exact time of his arrival. 
To remove the uncertainty as to the time of his arrival in America and 
to seek information regarding his early life, his descendants have united 
their efiforts in making a careful investigation at least, as far as existing 
records disclose, in order that they may form some definite idea of the 
principal events of his life. 

The following review is now ]~)resented for the purpose of bringing 
to light some facts which may unravel the tangle : There was a John 
Dunham, born in Scrooby, a village on the Idle, a branch of the Trent 
River, Nottinghamshire, Eng. lie left his country at an early age on 
account of religious persecution. His father soon after removed from 
Scrooby to London, taking with him Ins son Robert, wlio, for the same 
cause, was transported in 1630 from London in the ship George, to 
Virginia. It has been found to be a very difficult task to establish 
this John Dunham, of Scrooby, and reestablish liim, as the Plymouth 
John Dunham, who, as a .Separatist, lied from England, escaped from 
his jMU'suers by assunn'ng the name of John (loodman when in ilolland 
and America.

worth and Worksop. Scrooby, the native village of Deacon John 
Dunham and Elder William Brewster, was situated two miles south- 
west of Austerfield, the birthplace of Governor Bradford. Within this 
territory were the Manors of Scrooby, in which the first congregation 
of the Pilgrims was organized, and Southwell. These Manors were 
formerly placed under the charge of Edwin Sandys, Archbishop of 
York, by order of Queen Elizabeth. 

ORGANIZATION OF THE PILGRIM CHURCH. The first 
congregation of the Pilgrim Church was organized through the efTorts 
of William Brewster, in the Manor House at Scrooby, and Rev. Richard 
Clifton, of Babworth, was called to officiate as the first pastor. He was 
succeeded by Rev. John Robinson, who was pastor, and William Brew- 
ster, elder of the church, when the Pilgrims emigrated to America. 
William Bradford and John Dunham, while in their boyhood, were 
placed under the spiritual guidance of William Brewster, who was post- 
master of Scrooby. Brewster was appointed to this position by Sir 
John Stanhope, April i, 1594, which office he held until September, 1607. 
The Dunhams were for a long time owners of large tracts of land in the 
vicinity of Scrooby. John Dunham, Esq.. a progenitor of Deacon 
John Dunham, inherited property at Dunham-on-the-Trent. He mar- 
ried Elizabeth Bowett, who had been the wife of William Chaworth. 
Her mother was the daughter of Sir John Zouche and through him of 
Bergh and De Bellaqua. By her John Dunham had a son. Sir John 
Dunham. She died March 17. 1501. In her will, recorded at Newark- 
on-the-Trent, March 10, 1502, she grants to her son, Sir. John, the 
Kirklington Manor, as heir and remainder of Sir John Zouche. 

Sept. 10, 1509, John Dunham presided over a court of inquisition 
at Southwell. The Manor of Colwick, was granted to John Dunham, 
Robert Clark and John Sutton, June 4, 1502. John Dunham subse- 
quently sold his interest to Sir John Sutton. March 3, 1513, John Dun- 
ham was appraiser of the estate of Ralph Langston at Worksop. His 
son. Sir John Dunham, presided over a court of inquisition in 1528, 
post mortem of Robert Stanhope. Sir John Dunham's property in 
Kirklington and Edingley, some of which was held under the Arch- 
bishop of York, consisted of thirty messuages, seven cottages, three 
hundred acres of land, two hundred acres of meadow, one hundred 
acres of pasture, forty acres of wood, and he held in other parts of 
Notte, under Sir Edmund Bergh, a number of messuages, tliree hundred 
acres of land near Scrooby, and also meadow and wood land. 

Sir John Dunham, Sir John Digby and William De Roos, were 



DEACON JOHN DUNHAM. 3 

trustees of the estate of Margaret De Roos, relict of Humphrey De 
Roos, who had inherited a large tract of land in Lexington, popularly- 
known as Laxton, in Notte. Scrooby was settled by a colony from 
Laxton, and our Lexington in Massachusetts was settled by natives 
from old Lexington ; hence its name. Both places are of extreme his- 
torical interest. To this day the earthworks and foundations of the 
demesne of the Everinghams, and other great lords of Laxton, are 
carefully preserved. King John especially loved Laxton. He granted 
a charter for Sherwood Forest, to Kaufe De Caux, a son of Steven and 
Maria De Caux. The last of this great family was a single woman, 
who died about one hundred and fifty years ago. A collateral branch 
was De Roos. Humphrey De Roos having been a lawful heir, after 
his death his wife succeeded him in possession of the property, of which 
Sir John Dunham was a trustee. 

PERSECUTION OF THE PILGRIMS. Upon the accession of 
James I, King of England, he and his bishops were determined to force 
the Episcopacy on his people. They commanded all those who were 
aljove the age of sixteen to regularly attend church services. In case 
of neglecting to do so, they were to be imprisoned. The Separatists, 
rather than submit, decided upon leaving the countrw In this move- 
ment, William Brewster was the controlling spirit. In the fall of 1607 
the Separatists made arrangements for escaping to Holland, where they 
could have freedom of religious worship. They were intercepted and 
seven of their number were put in prison. William Brewster, having 
been concealed by his associates, escaped. It is supposed that William 
Bradford and John Dunham, each then nineteen years old, were of the 
seven who were arrested at Boston and imprisoned, and it is firmly l)e- 
lieved that if Governor Bradford had written the names of these 
prisoners in his pocket memorandum l)Ook, the name of Joliu Dunham 
would be found. The Pilgrims continued their efforts and were suc- 
cessful in reaching Holland in 1608. 

Sir Dudley Carleton was the ambassador of King James I at The 
Hague. While there, his orders w^ere to watch and, if possible, bring 
charges against the Pilgriius. William Brewster published at Levden 
a number of pamphlets of Pilgrim literature, which rctleeted on the 
Church of England. He was financially assisted by William l.rewer. 
an English gentleman residing in Leyden, a few doors from the Rew 
John Robinson's house. There being a mutual bond of friendshi]) l)c- 
tween King James and ilie States general of lIoHand, measures were 
taken to have the printing supi)ressed and the publishers arrested and 



4 DEACON JOHN DUNHAM. 

transported to England. The States general issued an edict against the 
publication. William Brewer was arrested by William Zouche, who 
had been appointed by Ambassador Carleton for that purpose. This 
Zouche and John Dunham were in the same degree related to Sir John 
Zouche. William Brewer was taken to England, Dec. 9, 1619, and 
placed in prison, where he remained until the meeting of the Long 
Parhament. William Brewster escaped, and the next year sailed for 
America. The Pilgrims, in emigrating to America, desired to con- 
tinue living under the Dutch rule by locating near the mouth of the 
Hudson River. In this they were disappointed, as they landed on the 
New England shore. Here they were again on English territory and 
under the sovereignty of King James, who was still bitter in his feelings 
against them, and his successor. King Charles I, followed in the same 
line of hostility, until it led to his own downfall. King James, however, 
had other interests at stake. He was engaged in making English set- 
tlements in New England. He feared making an open attack on the 
Pilgrims, thinking it might embarrass his enterprises. The Pilgrims 
were suspicious of him and were particularly solicitious about John 
Dunham, as his kinsmen were zealous partisans of the Established 
Church and leaders in the attacks of the Pilgrims. One of them. Sir 
Edward Zouche, was chairman of the commission engaged in settling 
New England. John Dunham was in a hazardous position, on account 
of his kinsmen, as well as being a Separatist. His identity had to be 
concealed. This was done by adopting the name of John Goodman, 
which name was continued until after the death of King James. 

PASSENGERS BY THE MAYFLOWER IN 1620. In the pub- 
lished list of passengers by the jNIayflowcr, in 1620, appears the name of 
John Goodman, who was reported to have been a single man. He, 
it is told, dies during the first winter. After this he is -assigned one of 
the garden plots adjoining that of Elder William Brewster, and three 
years after his arrival was allotted land in the General Distribution, in 
1623. Governor Bradford did not commence writing the Plymouth 
Annals until 1630, ten years after the arrival of the Mayflower at 
Plymouth. He continued the writing until 1641, that is, two years 
after the first organization of the General Court. At this time John 
Dunham was deacon of the church, having been chosen in 1633, to 
serve under Elder Brewster. He also held the office of deputy for the 
colony, for which ofifice he was chosen on June 4, 1639, when the Gen- 
eral Court was organized. These offices he held almost continuously 
the rest of his life. It was not till the year 1650 that the list of pas- 



DEACON JOHN DUNHAM. 5 

sengers brought by the ]\Iayfl(nvcr, in 1620, was made up by Governor 
Bradford. Some assert that it was done by Governor Prince. This 
is immaterial, though controversial, and at all events, ])retty late for an 
historical record. The Pilgrims on l)oard the Mayflower in the fall of 
1620, made a solemn compact, for their mutual benefit. It is a scanda- 
lous disgrace to the of^cials of the Old Colony that so precious a docu- 
ment as the Compact could have been lost. Will any apology suffice 
for such negligence, since historians base all their statements on this 
authority? It was not until the year 1669 that Nathaniel ]\Iorton gave 
the names of the signers of the compact. This, one year after the death 
of Deacon John Dunham and twelve years after the death of Governor 
Bradford. 

EVENTS IN THE LIFE OF DEACON JOHN DUNHAM. He 
was born in the village of Scrooby, in Nottinghamshire, England, in the 
year 1588-9. He married Abigail Wood, who was distantly related to 
him. He was married in Leyden, Holland, Oct. 17, 1619. and their 
son John was born near the time of departure of the Pilgrims for 
America, in 1620. The mother and child were not able and were not 
allowed to accompany him. She, however, secretly joined him in Ply- 
mouth. This accounts for his lieing recorded a single man. That he 
was known as one of the Old Stock is evidenced when, in 1662, his son 
John received a grant of land, being one of the first born in the colony. 
In accounting for John ( ioodman (John Dunham), iK'ing reported as 
dying during the first winter, two reasons have been suggested; either 
to avoid considering John Goodman as one of the first settlers, or for 
the purpose of concealing his identity as John Dunham. Both of these 
points, perhaps, were considered. \\'e have yet to learn how Elder 
Brewster was protected in 1 lollaud and America. Three years after the 
first arrival of the first settlers, an assignment of garden i)lots was 
made to the "Married Men of the Plantation," as ordered by the or- 
dinance of the colonists. How these lots were distributed Governor 
Bradford describes in his own handwriting, as follows : "The South 
Side of the Street:" Peter Browne, John Goodman, William I'rewster. 
"Highway to Town Brook:" John I'.illington, Isaac .\llerton, Francis 
Cooke, Edward \\'inslow. Idie lots for planting were allotted by 
chance". Historians state that these lots were awarded to John Good- 
man and others. The same authorities tell us that he had died during 
the first winter. At that time John Du.nham was alive. It should be 
considered, that John Goodman, if a single man, could not hold a garden

plot. Single men were obliged to live in the families of the married. 
John Dunham was a married man, and provision was made for his 
family. He was a protege of Elder Brewster and also a native of 
Scrooby, and it would be natural to give them adjoining lots, as Gov- 
ernor Bradford reports. 

A list has been published giving the names of those settlers to 
whom cattle were given in the distribution of 1627. It is claimed that 
this document gives the names of all the inhabitants of the Colony at 
that time. Since the publication, on investigation, it has been shown 
that there were other residents in 1627. Neither the name of Good- 
man nor Dunham appear in the list. John Dunham, soon after this 
date, is known to be a dealer in cattle. As early as 1632 he received a 
grant of land for pasturing his cattle. He may have purchased them 
in 1627. John Dunham was chosen deacon of the church, in 1633. 
under Elder Brewster. This is the year some historian says that he 
arrived in the country. It is not creditable that on his immediate ar- 
rival he should be chosen to such a responsible position, without a 
previous record. As late as 1638, cattle were sold under the name of 
"Goodman." During this year cattle were advertised as "Goodman's 
Steers." These are supposed to be the property of Deacon John Dun- 
ham. The following extract, concerning Deacon John Dunham, taken 
from the Records, expresses the opinion of those who in 1638 were 
about placing him in power as Deputy of the Colony: 

"He was a man of strict honesty and sterling character, quite 
prominent in the growth and prosperity of the Colony." Could this 
be said of a man who had just arrived in the Colony, coming, as his- 
torians have stated, in 1633? The Plymouth Colonial Records in speak- 
ing of the death of Deacon John Dunham give this information: ,"He 
was an approved servant of God and useful man in his place, being a 
deacon in the Church of Plymouth." He carried out in the minutest 
detail the principles taught by his Church in extending the Kingdom of 
his Lord and Saviour. 

PLYMOUTH COLONY. Much is du-e, for the success of the 
infant Plymouth Colony, to the industry and enterprise of Deacon John 
Dunham. By trade he was a weaver and plied the loom. He was also 
engaged in rearing cattle, and as his flocks increased, he secured' addi- 
tional land, from time to time, so that his estate was constantly on the 
increase. He became one of the first purchasers of Dartmouth. This 
he sold to John Briggs, six years before his death. To the new- 



DEACON JOHN DUNHAM. 7 

comers, John Dunham dealt with a hberal hand in providing means for 
their sulisisfence, and ho secured land for their occupancy and use. 

On the loth of April, in the 4th year of the reign of King James 
the 1st, the Great Patent of New England, which is the foundation of 
the title to the land comprised between the 40 and 48° of north latitude, 
was presented and granted on 3d of November, 1620. The council was 
formed under the leadership of Sir Edmund Zouche, Counselor of 
James I, to put it into execution. This council made inducements for 
settling the county. In 1621 it granted to John Pierce, in trust, a 
patent. This he sold in 1623 for £500. On the ist of January, 1629, 
Gov. Bradford bought the patent in trust, but the patent was not signed 
imtil the first year of Charles I. A form of government was adopted 
placing the power in the hands of the governor and assistants. In 1638 
this power was transferred to the' house of Deputies or General Court. 
On the 2d of March, 1640, Gov. Wm. Bradford surrendered the patent, 
reserving to himself, ist, a tract on Cape Cod, embracing Eastham, 
Orleans, Brewster and Chatham. 2d, Dartmouth and New Bedford. 
^d, Rheoboth, Mass. Barrington, Warren and, perhaps, Bristol, R. I. 

To the disconsolate, John Dunham gave words of encouragement 
and solaced them with kind words and deeds. He was self-sacrificing 
in providing for the comforts of others. This was in accordance with 
his general character. When about twenty days after arriving at Ply- 
mouth, he (whom some historians have named John Goodman), and 
Peter Brown walking into the woods, "to gather thatch" (ndtice the 
object of their expedition), "lost themselves." After wandering all the 
afternoon, they were obliged, though "slenderly" clothed to make the 
ground their bed. It snowed and the cold was severe. Their distress 
in the night was increased by hearing as they supposed lions roaring, 
one of wdiich they thought very near. In their terror, the\- resolved to 
climb a tree, though an intolerably cold lodging ])lace. They stood 
ready to ascend, when the lions should come, and continued walking, 
walking 'round the tree all night, which probably saved their lives. In 
the morning they saw the islands in Plymouth Harbor and in the even- 
ing reached their friends, fainting with hunger and cold. John Dun- 
ham's feet were so frozen tliat they were obliged to cut ofif his shoes. 

John Dunham was patriotic while reverencing his native country; 
he loved the coimtry of his adoption, lie with ( iovernor I'radford and 
Elder Brewster were the onh I'ilgrims who were members of the 
original congregation at .Scrooby and lhe\ jiassed ihe wlmle ni ilu'ir 
lives in PIvukkUIi, while others scathTed into the wildi'rness beyond

them. It is to be inferred that John Dunham, by purchase and land 
grants, had accumulated considerable property. Not only had grants 
been given to him, but his son John, had been the recipient of a special 
grant, being the first born of one of the old comers. As early as 1632, 
John Dunham's name appears on the day list for 9 shillings and Miles 
Standish 18 shillings. Although Deacon John Dunham proved him- 
self to be a man of excellent business qualifications, his soul appeared 
to be rapt up in tlie work of the church. Up to 1639 the affairs of the 
church were peaceably managed. At this time John Cook caused 
some dissensions and confusion in the organization. John Cook was 
dismissed and, to appease the people, John Dunham was elected his 
successor. He held the position of deacon for the rest his life. 

During the official life of John Dunham as one of the Deputies of 
the General Court of Plymouth, the history of the colony prescribes 
but few momentous events and the period was one of profound peace 
with the Indians. English settlements, incorporated as towns, were 
extended in every direction, and the territory was nearly covered by 
English grants. There were no domestic feuds or ecclesiastical con- 
troversies. Sectarians, it is true, occasionally disturl)cd "the tranquility 
of the inhabitants of this little commonwealth, but persecution, with 
them, assumed its mildest form, and their annals have escaped that deep 
and indellible stain of blood which pollutes the pages of the early history 
of their sterner and more intolerant brethren of Massachusetts. They 
were somewhat apprehensive of the commissioners who were sent out 
by King Charles II, to examine the condition of the colonies and to 
correct abuses, but in Plymouth, there were no complaints, because 
apparently there were no wrongs. In 1643 ^ union or confederation 
was effected between the colonies of Plymouth, Massachusetts, Con- 
necticut and New Haven. The principal objects of this confederation 
were to secure harmonious co-operation in religious affairs, to establish 
an alliance offensive and defensive for the common defense. 

The spirit of enterprise which found its first employment in con- 
troversies with the natives took another direction, and in the prosecu- 
tion of commerce found the real source of prosperity and wealth. 
Frugal and prudent from necessity, and industrious from habit, the 
colonists continued to advance by sure and certain steps in their career 
of successful exertion until the breaking out of King Philip's war, which 
occurred nine years after the death of John Dunham. This war was 
the death struggle between the white and red men, and the fate not 
only of Plymouth but of all New England was involved in the issue. 



DEACON JOHN DUNHAM. 9 

Philip's residence and tliat of his native tribe was within the territorial 
jurisdiction of Plymouth, and therefore much of the danger and much 
of the suffering, which were occasioned by them, fell upon that colony. 

The Enoiish were successful and secured the disi)osal of the lands 
of the Indians. The dominion of the colony was hrndy established and 
the colonists were relieved from all apprehensions of Indian hostility. 
In 1692 Plvmouth C(dony was absorbed in that of Massachusetts. The 
people of Plvmouth shared but few of the favors which the new govern- 
ment had to bestow, and it was seldom that any resident, in what was 
termed the "Old Colony," obtained any ofihce or distinction in the 
Provincial government, or acquired any influence in its councils. I'ly- 
mouth, however, may well be proud of the high distinctions which have 
been acquired by many of her native sons when placed in more genial 
clime. She has furnished her full proportion of talent, genius, learning 
and enterprise, in almost every department of life. 

RESIDENCE AND LAND OF DEACON JOHN DUNHAM. 
Deacon John Dunham's residence, after leaving the village, was located 
north of Watson's Hill and southwest of the village of Plymouth. To 
the west there was a swamp having an outlet into the Town Brook. 
This outlet, being on his land, was called Dunham's Brook. Two miles 
west by south of the village, was a large body of water called Billington 
Zee, which took the name from Francis Billington, who first discovered 
it. The Town brook is an outlet to this body of water. It has been 
enlarged by a flange and a pond. The old swamp and Dunham's Brook, 
by a flange flowing into Town brook, by means of a dam it has become 
a large pond. \A\'st of Billington Zee is a smaller pond from which it 
is separated by a narrow strip of land, which was ])ul)licly known as 
Dunham's neck. This strip was a portion of Deacon John Dunham's 
land. The highway leading to Carver was north of the ponds. South 
of Billinaton Zee within a radius of four-and-a-half miles there were, 
on the west, a number of ponds. Micajah's jiond is one-and-a-half 
miles south from the Zee. This pond was within the hinds of Micajah 
Dunham, a grandson of Deacon John Dunham. Three miles farther 
south, near the Carver line, was Dunham's pond. The land enclosing 
it was purchased by some of the descendants of Deacon John Dinduun.

courtship with Martha Knott. On this account he was led to sell this 
lot which his father had given him and to leave the colony. He went 
into Massachusetts and afterwards to Hartford, Connecticut. It is 
supposed that he died in Connecticut. His cottage in Plymouth was 
sold in 1677 to Benjamin Eaton, of Andover. It is stated that Martha 
Knott m. Nov. 29, 1650. If this be so, either this Martha was from

Austin, of Bristol, Conn. When he was eleven years of age his family 
moved to Portage County, Ohio. He studied at the district school and 
local academy, but after a year's attendance at Mount Union College, 
Ohio, circumstances prevented him from continuing his course. He 
returned to Connecticut, in 1865 ; engaged two years in teaching and 
afterwards studied law in the oflfice of Hon. Chas. E. Mitchell, of New 
Britain; was meantime clerk of the police court and editor of the New 
Britain Record; was admitted to the Hartford County bar, in 1871 ; a 
year later entered the office of Hon. Henry C. Robinson, of Flartford, 
and practiced law until 1883. After being admitted to the bar, Mr. 
Dunham continued with Mr. Robinson for twelve years, until his elec- 
tion as city attorney of Hartford. He held this office two years. At 
the end of his term he accepted the position of secretary of the Corbin 
companies of New Britain. Two years later he resigned to become 
general counsel for the Travelers" Insurance Co., and was elected a 
director in January, 1897. His able administration of the duties of 
counsel and his thorough acquaintance with the financial interests of 
the company made him the logical candidate for the vice-presidency, in 
January, 1899, and foreshadowed his election to the presidency, October 
14, 1901. He is a director in the Connecticut Fire Insurance Co., the 
National Exchange Bank of which he is also vice-president, the State 
Savings Bank, the National Shoe and Leather Bank of New York City, 
the Society for Savings and the American Hardware Company. He is 
president of the National Board of Casualty Underwriters and Governor 
of the Connecticut Society of Mayflower descendants. He is a member 
of the Sons of the American Revolution and of the order of Founders

THOMAS DUNHAM. 

THOMAS DUNHAM, son of Deacon John Dunham. HI.— 
Thomas Dunham, b. in Plymouth, Mass., 1626; m. Martha Knott, of 
Sandwich, dau. of George Knott, in 1646. She d. May 5, 1648. Her 
father in his will mentions Thomas Dunham as a legatee. Thomas's 
courtship with Martha was extensively criticised and he was subsequent- 
ly disciplined by the authorities. This appears to have been a source 
of discomfort to him, and he left the colony for a number of years, and 
during that time located in Hartford, Connecticut. Wiiile there, in 
1658, he was awarded ten pounds for his services in the Indian war, by 
Plymouth. He returned to Plymouth and was present in 1669 at the 
death of his father. His sons had arrived at the age of maturity and 
were acting for themselves. Four years after his father's death he was 
made constable of Plymouth. It is not stated when or where he died. 
His cottage was sold to Benjamin Eaton, in 1677. This property may 
have included the six acres of land from his father, donated in 1647, 
and the land he bought of Anthony Snow in 1645. Many of his 
descendants adopted the name Donham.

in Hartford, where he formed the acquaintance wit'h Samuel Marsh, a

try and m. his wife, Sarah Uunhani, in i()()8. .\flcr the close of King 
Phillip's war in which he had served the General Court at a session in 
October, 1677, at Hartford, granted him ten pounds as an inducement 
to locate in Rye, Westchester Co., and for his loss in the Indian war. 
He d. about 1688. His will was made at Bedford, May 2, 1688, and is 
recorded at White Plains, N. Y. After his death his wife, Sarah Dun- 
ham, in 1691, m. John Hendrickson. Nathaniel and Ephraim, sons of 
Nathaniel, nephew of Thomas, after removing from Woodbridge, 
located for a time with their cousins at Rye as stated in the records of 
their families. The General Court in October t68o ordered that the 
Thirty Pounds per annum agreed to be payd by Rye to the Minister, 
Mr. Dunham, shall be gathered by the Constable, with the Country 
Rates. October 1685 Thomas Dunham and Caleb Watson are ac- 
counted Freemen at Rye. Caleb Wat.son was born in Hart- 
ford and son of John Watson one of the earliest Settlers and the First 
Highway Surveyors of Hartford, Connecticut.

I JONATHAN, son of Thomas Donham, was b. in Plymouth, 1646, 
resided for a time in Hartford and New Haven. Ik' was a farmer 
and acquired a knowledge of the milling business. New Jersey, in 1665, 
gave grants of land between Rahway and Raritan rivers to many of 
the settlers in Eastern New Engla'nd, as an inducement for them to 
settle in their colony. Among those who tt)ok advantage of the ofTer 
were the I )unhams, lUoomtields and ^larshes of Connecticut. Jona- 
than Donham received a grant for 210 acres of land on the Passaic 
river as a bonus for conducting a flour mill for the benefit of the ])eoi)le. 
This mill was built by him in 1672. He m. Mary Bloomfield of Hart- 
ford.

There are some writers, who, in speaking of the early settlers of 
New Jersey, state that the earliest of the Dunhams was Jonathan 
Dunham, a notorious vagabond, from Haverhill, Massachusetts, who 
had assumed this name, and finally designated himself "Jonathan Don- 
ham alias Singletary." He was a Singletary. As such a record of his 
family has been given. He coming into the Colony about the same 
time in which Jonathan Donham located there, has, to a certain extent, 
mystified the records. 

There is no public record showing when or where Jonathan Dun- 
ham alias Singletary died. The only information given is that he left 
a will and that it was the source of nmch annoyance and contention 
among the litigants. Jonathan Singletary, with Robert La- 
priere was arrested on the seventh of September, 1677, by 
John Ogden, sheriff of Achter Colony for removing goods from 
Governor Phillip Carteret's house and was condemned for the act. 
On the 1 6th of July preceding he had been ordered by the Council of 
War for Achter Colony to pay five pounds costs and punished as a 
mad-man. This Council consisted of Captain Benajah Dunham, 
Piscattaway, John Pike, Woodbridge, etc. At this time Jonathan Don- 
ham, who, in 1670, was granted 270 acres of land to erect a flour mill, 
must have been well known as a miller. Singletary then left Wood- 
bridge, and in 1683, appears in Plymouth as appears by the records of 
that colony, where he assumed the name of Jonathan Dunham as fol- 
lows : Whereas, "Jonathan Dunham, alias Shingletary" absented him- 
self from his wife and family, though advised and warned for some 
considerable time by the authorities hath been wandering from place to 
place as a vagabond in the colony, also disseminating his corrupt prin- 
ciples and drawing another man's wife, she following up and down 
against her husband's consent ; and he at last accompanying a young 
woman, called Mary Ross, led by enthusiastic power, he says, hee 
must doe what she bade him, and accordingly, did both of them on her 
motion, at the house of John Irish at Little Compton killed his dogg, 
against the declared will of the said John Irish, and although he did 
put them out of his house, they would go in againe, and according to 



THOMAS DUNHAM. 43 

their antics and foolish power, made a fier and threw the dogg upon it 
and shot off a gun several times, and burnt some other things several 
times in the house, to the hazard of burning his house and young chil- 
dren, keeping the doors and not opening them to the said John Irish 
when he came with some of his neighbors to rescue the same to the dis- 
turbance of the Colony. Having been driven from Plymouth, he re- 
turns to Woodbridge under his assumed name. He here accumulated 
a little property during the following six years for as shown by the 
record in the office of the Surveyor General, he had accjuired and deeded 
to his Mary Ross, as follows :

vania, and read law at Georgetown with General Thomas Hamer, 
shortly before the outbreak of the Mexican war. He was ad- 
mitted to the bar in Clermont County in 1848, practiced his 
profession in Xew Richmond until ■i8r)5, then a few years at Ports- 
mouth, Ohio, and afterward located at Cincinnati, where he continued 
in the practice of the law until i8(;o. He removed to New Richmond 
in 1883, and then purchased the beautiful home in which he died. He 
was thrice married, his first wife being a daughter of Captain William 
McClain, the famous Ohio River steamboat captain. She was the 
mother of four children, two boys, Willie and Charlie, who died in in- 
fancy, and two girls, Belle, who died in 1878, and Carrie, the surviving 
wife of F"urman Brooks, of Portsmouth, Ohio, and who now resides at 
Gambier, Ohio, educating her only daughter, Beatrice. His second 
wife was Melissa Dudley, who lived but a few years after their mar- 
riage. His third wife, and who survives him, was Mrs. Sallie Smith, 
their marriage occurring on the 3d day of August, 1880. Mr. Donham 
was singularly fortunate in all his marriages. Helpful and faithful, 
their counsels and companionship was the dearest thing earth gave him. 
He loved his children, sought their every comfort, and his heart warmed 
in their well-being and well-doing. A-Ir. Donham was a lawyer of great 
power, and in the ante-bellum days his services were eagerly sought 
by a very large client age in Southern Clermont. He was a man of 
fine personal appearance, and an earnest, logical and finished speaker. 
Stately, commanding, erect, ample in speech, graceful in compliments, 
courteous to a degree, rich in illustrations, ready in wit, profusely 
humorous, he became one of Clermont's most gifted sons. He was a 
Clermonter through and through — proud of his county that was and ever 
will be proud of him. He thought the Ohio \'alley was the finest spot 
on earth and loved the Ohio River as a luother loves her child. He was 
a perfect gentleman, nith a suavity of manner that always l)espoke him 
such. He was a prou 1 man, but not a vain one. "Vanity rests on the 
opinion of others; pride on our own. The source of vanity is from 
without; of pride, from within. X'anity is a vane that turns; a willow 
that bends with every jreeze. 1^-ide is the oak that defiies the storm — 
one is cloud, the otli.'r rock; one is weakness, the other strength." 
Proud though he was, he was easily a])proachable ; generous in heart, 
magnanimous to a fo?, and sym])athetic with all tenderness. Issue:

OLIVIA (DUNHAM) BARXES. 
49 OLUTA DUNHAM BARNES was the dau. of Capl. Samuel 
Dunham, a prosperous farmer of Conway, Mass. She finished her 
education under Mary Lyons, the founder of Holyoke Seminary. She 
m. in 1 83 1 the Rev. Romulus Barnes, who graduated at Yale Lhii- 
versity and Theological Seminary. Full of religious zeal and en- 
thusiasm she enlisted with her husband in the work of building of the 
Kingdom of God in the then wilderness of Illinois, under A. 11. ^1. S. 
The dangers from hostile Indians and the deprivations endured by those 
Pioneers is a part of the history of the country. The T'arnes' were 
some of the earliest to engage the Bondmen and in the cause Mrs. 
Barnes was in full and active sympathy. The\- were ostracized bv 
neighbors and by many churches. They were many times threatened 
and several times assaulted by Proslavery mobs and upon one oc- 
casion she was severely wounded I)y a stone thrown by one of the mob. 
By the death of her liusl)an(l in 1846, she was left with eight children, 
the oldest fourteen years of age. It is sufficient testimony to her 
ability and strength of ])urpose, that five of the seven children, who 
reached maturity were graduates from a college or seminary.

in the world. His philanthropy extended, principally, to another and 
unfortunate race — the Negro. His magnificent gifts to the TIampton 
Institute, and the Tuskegee School have enabled both institutions to 
prepare their students for practical life, and in his death the Negro has 
lost a great, wise and true friend. His will discloses, to some extent, 
his immense wealth, which he had accummulated, and also showed the 
same wisdom in disposing of money, which must have characterized 
his life. He died at his camp in the Adirondacks, Aug. 18, 1900, and 
his remains taken to New York City, where his funeral from his Fifth 
Avenue residence, was conducted with simplicity. The interment was 
made in the Huntington Mausoleum in Woodlawn Cemetery. 495.

502 HENRY EDWARDS HUNTINGTON, son of Solon Hunt- 
ington and Harriet Saunders Huntington, of ()neonta. New York, was 
b. February 2y, 1850, at Oneonta. The Huntingtons in America began 
with Simon Huntington, who sailed from Norwich, England, in 1632, 
and whose family settled at Roxbury, Mass. Among his descendants 
were Jabez Huntington, Senior and Junior, both general ofificers in 
the Revolutionary army; Ebenezer Huntington, adjutant general and 
Connecticut representative in Congress for two terms : Samuel Hunt- 
ington, one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence; presi- 
dent of the Continental Cogress and chief justice and governor of Con- 
necticut and lastly, the late Collis Potter Huntin.gton, the great rail- 
road financier, who Ijuilt the Central Pacific and Southern Pacific 
systems, and many other lines of railroad, founder of the City of New- 
port News and of its well-known shipyard. Educated in his native 
town, Henry Edwards Huntingdon at an early age started out to carve 
his own way in life. Beginning in a hardware store at ( )neonta he 
soon came to New York to find a wider sphere of usefulness and there 
(|uickly attracted the attention of his fnmous uncle, C. 1\ Himtington, 
who sent him to West X'irginia to take charge of certain lumljer in- 
terests which had actpiired importance in the elder man's eyes on 
account of a combination that had been formed among the sellers of 
railroad ties to put up the ])rice of the conun<>dit\-. The \'oung man 
acquitted himself with such credit that in 1881 he was a])pointe(l bv 
his uncle, superintendent of construction of the Chesapeake, ()hio t.K: 
Southwestern Railroad from Louis\ille to Mein])his: thence lie trans- 
ferred his field of work to the Kentucky Central Railroad, tilling sue-

cessively the offices of superintendent, general manager and vice-presi- 
dent, until he took charge in 1890 of the Newport News & Mississippi 
Valley Railroad, between Memphis and New Orleans. In 1892, C. P. 
Huntington, then president of the Southern Pacific Co., rewarded the 
3^ears of loyal and efficient management and the proven intelligence, 
resource and good judgment of the nephew by appointing him assistant 
to the president of all the Southern Pacific lines and he went to San 
Francisco where he became the alter ego of his uncle and the real 
head on the Pacific Coast of the vast properties with which he was 
connected. In 1900, he was made second vice-president, and a few 
months later became first vice-president. A few years ago Mr. Hunt- 
ington made the most decisive business step of his whole life. In Los 
Angeles there was a street railway which languished for the lack of a 
strong management. Mr. Huntington's far-seeing mind had long be- 
fore perceived the tremendous importance of electricity applied to rail- 
way operation and he secured the control of this stagnant property. 
With the assumption of his ownership a vigorous energy and life was 
instilled into the management of the Los Angeles Railway, which 
quickly improved and increased until a system of vast possibilities and 
earning power was established. He and a few wealthy friends formed 
a syndicate of some fifteen millions, procured franchises of great value 
and incorporated the Pacific Electric and the Los Angeles Inter-Urban 
Railway Companies for the construction of suburban lines. To-day 
Mr. Huntington stands in the very front rank of electric railway 
builders and operators and to him is given credit for the new and 
flourishing life of that large section of California which his railway 
lines serve. Like his distinguished uncle his work in life has been the 
creation of permanent industries giving employment to thousands of 
his fellow-men. Like him, also, he has never accepted or desired 
public office of any kind. Mr. Huntington is an officer or director of 
more than fifty corporations and banks. He m. Mary Prentice, of 
Sacramento, the issue of which union has been four children : Howard 
E., b. Feb. 11, 1876; Clara, b. Feb. 2, 1878; Elizabeth Vincent, b. Feb.

1 82 JOSEPH DUNHAM. 

Jan. ' 29, 1891, Marianna Elkins. at Dorchester, Alass. George A. 
Denham is of Puritan stock. His father, the Rev. George Dunham, 
was an Episcopahan minister, a prominent figure in religious confer- 
ences fifty (50) years ago, and a direct descendant of John Denham, one 
of the early settlers who the Mayflower brought over from Southern 
England. His mother was a Thacher, of the old shipbuilding family 
of that name. Most of the whaling vessels that sailed from New Bed- 
ford when that port was the center of the whaling industry, came from 
the shipyards of 'Matthew Thacher. Rev. George Denham's parents 
always lived in Plymouth where the original settlers located, and where 
the succeeding generations of the family followed their life pursuits. 
George A. Denham was b. at South Dartmouth, a suburb of New 
Bedford, Mass., July 12th, 1849. He was the second eldest of six chil- 
dren and was first sent to school at Wellfleet, Mass. He finished his 
education at Chelsea, 'Mass., and Nashua, N. H., most of his schooling 
being received at Chelsea. In 1867 he engaged in business at 
Boston in the employ of Henry Jones & Co., ship timber dealers. He 
remained with this firm one year, entering the employ of Jewett & 
Pitcher, lumber dealers in 1868 and continuing with them for four 
years. As a manufacturer of mouldings he started in business for him- 
self in the spring of 1872, and in the fall of that year, in the disastrous 
fire that swept so large a part of Boston, his factories at Congress 
and Purchase Streets were burned to the ground. No event could 
have served better to bring out the indomitable pluck and energy of 
the man. The city sufifering from the shock of a great calamity, chaotic 
conditions existing in business circ-le everywhere, thousands ruined, and 
himself facing probable bankruptcy through the inability of the insur- 
ance companies to meet their tremendous losses, George A. Denham 
proved the sturdiness of his ancestral stock. He did not whimper, 
although the blow cut deep. The ruins of his old factory were still 
warm when he had the lease of other quarters and had his men at work 
fitting up for active operation. Sunday morning, Nov. loth, saw his 
first establishment raised to the ground and the following Tuesday at 
7 o'clock a. m., saw him newly installed with his entire force of em- 
ployes pushing ahead on the work that the fire had interrupted, and 
long before the majority of Boston's business men had l)cgun to re- 
cover from the paralyzing stupor into which the disaster had thrown 
them. It was a remarkable feat in the face of such adverse circum- 
stances. But this was not the only instance in which he proved to 
possess rare executive ability. He was only 24 years of age, when he

bid for and secured a large contract with the Massachusetts State 
Prison, thu'ing- wliich he liad in liis employ u])\vards of 400 men. At 
the successful termination of this slate contract he end^arked in the 
wholesale boot and shoe business, which he followed from 1879 to 
1890, at which latter date he organized the American Palace Car Com- 
pany, to manufacture tmder newlv granted patents an im])roved sani- 
tary sleeping car, being a parlor, sleeping and dining car ccMnbined.

Dorchester, Mass., he m. Marianna Elkins, of Nantucket, Mass., mak- 
ing his home at Dorchester. From the organization of the American 
Palace Car Compan\ , in 1890, Mr. Denham has devoted his entire 
time to, and is at present the executive head of that corporation, leak- 
ing his business heacjuarters in New York 'Cit} , while maintaining his

in the vicinity of what is now Pearl Street. Later, he started in busi- 
ness for himself and had a rope-walk ofif Boylston Street, the building

Thomas Harrison Dunham. Sr., son of josiah and .Mary Ann 
(Elms) Dunham, was b. June 30, 1815, at Pleasant Street Boston. 
He graduated from tlie ( )ld Hawes School and was a i'"ranklin Medal 
graduate of the Engiish High School. About the year 1835, he en- 
gaged in the dry goods business at the corner of Fourth Street and 
Dorchester Turnpike (now Dorchester Avenue), in South I'oston. On 
April II, 1839, he was m. to Eliza Ann West, of St. Johnsbury, \'t. ; 
d. Dec. 25, 1818. Two children were b, Thomas Harrison. Jr., July 
30, 1840 and William Bradford. Aug. 13, 1842. ^Ir. Dunham con- 
tinued in the dry goods business until a^bout the year 1846, and then 
went into the importing and wholesaling of hemp at a store on India 
Street and also became interested in the manufacture of cordage at 
Plymouth, Mass. For about ten years following, he was engaged in 
the cordage business in Providence, R. I., spending a part of his time 
in each city. On April i. 1846. he m. at Providence, Alsa R. I'urgess, 
who was b. March 17, 1820, at Harvard, Mass. There were six children 
by this marriage. In 1858, soon after the death of his father, Mr. 
Dunham started a cotton shoddy mill on Harrison Avenue, Boston, 
and during the Civil war manufactured lint and cotton batting for the 
use of the army. He also manufactured carpet linings and other cotton 
goods and continued to operate the mill until 1870, when he sold the 
land upon wdiich the mill stood to the Catholic Church, tlie land being 
a part of the site of the St. James' Cathedral. About the year 1875, he 
again engaged in the manufacture of cordage at lixniouth and invented 
a kind of cotton rope, obtaining a patent for the process of its manu- 
facture. Mr. Dunham was an ardent expounder of the gospel and 
occasionally preached from the bandstand on Boston Common. His 
death occurred Dec. 14, 1899, at Boston. 

1379 JOSIAH DU'NHAM, JUNIOR, b. in Poston. Mass., March 8, 
1804. Until 1853 he was connected with his father in the manufacture 
of cordage, after which he engaged, principally, in real estate transac- 
tions, acquiring considerable pro])erty. On attaining his majority he 
joined the Masonic Fraternity, becoming a INIaster Mason in Colmn- 
bian Lodge, September, 1825. He was one of the organizers of free- 
masonry, in South Boston; a charter member of St. Paid's Lodge, in

1846, and for more than 28 years its treasurer. He joined the Ancient 
and Honorable x\rtillery Company in 1828, continuing; in membership 
until his death. In 1836 he was active in the formation of a company 
of mihtia, the Pulaski Guards, and became its first captain. In 1853 he 
became a life member of the New England Historic Genealogical So- 
ciety : a member of the Bunker Hill Monument Association of the 
Pilgrim Society of "A Republican Institution" (chartered 1819), and 
other public and social organizations. For many years he was active 
in politics, and had great influence in his party. His connection with 
the city government of Boston commenced, in 1837, when he was 
elected to the office of councilman, serving agam in that capacity in 
1849, 1850 and 1851. In 1854 and 1855, he represented South Boston, 
in the board of aldermen. In i860 he was a delegate to the National 
Republican Convention in Chicago, which nominated Abraham Lincoln 
for the presidency. From 1861 to 1865 he held the office of naval 
storekeeper at the navy vard in Charlestown. He w-as a communicant 
of St. Mathew's (Episcopal) Church, a member of its vestry and was 
greatly interested in the work of the church, giving liberally of his 
means therefor. 

Few men in Boston had a more extensive acquaintance, or who 
were more zealous in behalf of the interests of the section of the city 
he represented in its government, and many of the public improvements 
in South Boston are due to his energy and foresight. Mr. Dunham 
was a man of strong personality, thoroughly public spirited, untiring 
in his labors fox any undertaking tending to the welfare of his native 
city, benevolent and liberal in his benefactions, giving without ostenta- 
tion. 'Socially, he enjoyed the friendship of a large circle and was a 
staunch friend. He d. April 17, 1877.

P'HI'NEAS DUNHAM was b. in Piscataway, New Jersey, Dec. 11, 
1764; was m. Nov. 13, 1788, to Zerniah Dunham, who was b. March 
3, 1764. After their marriage they settled near their native place where 
six children were b. In 1802 they emigrated to the wilds of Western 
Pennsylvania and located on a farm, which he had./ purchased about 
twelve miles north of Meadville. The journey was made in wagons 
and took about six weeks' time, following the route by Bald Eagle, 
now Belleforte. As the roads were scarcely more than Indian trails, it 
is wonderful that they should have had, according to tradition, but 
one accident on the way, that being the upsetting of a wagon which 
was not attended by any serious results. Their domestic animals were 
driven with them, and each morning the bucket containing the milk 
was hung under the wagon, and by night the butter was churned ready 
for the evening meal. After weary days, and nights full of fear, they 
arrived at their new home. It and the surroundings were so wild and 
desolate, that they completely discouraged the brave pioneer, who had 
guided and guarded them safely through all their wearisome journey, 
rind he turning to his wife, said, "Zerniah, we cannot live here, we will 
not unpack, but we will go back home again." "No, Phineas," said his 
energetic wife, "You broug'ht me here, and here I will stay." After 
remaining here three or four years, they removed to a farm which he 
purchased just north of Meadville, a beautiful prairie, long known as 
"Dunham's Flats." Hfere they established the lovely home, the memory 
of which is so cherished by the few living grand-children. The house 
Imilt with heavy hewn logs, was fashioned after the New Jersey home- 
steads, one-and-a-half stories in height, with a porch along the entire 
front covered with vines and bordered with flowers. A wide hall with 
a plain staircase divided the house and terminated in an out kitchen. 
On the right it opened into an immense ki'tchen, whose sand-polished 
iloor and general order made it no mean place for the entertaining of 
Qompany. On each side of the huge fireplace was a large pantry, from 
v.hich could be drawn, at any time, all the requisites for a satisfactory 



BENAJAII DUXIT.\^^. 265 

meal. In the fireplace hung- the large iron crane, with its pots and 
kettles, and in front stood the "Reflector,"' a large tin box with three 
sides, and o|)en front with two shelves, in wliicli l)y tlie reflected heat 
were baked the cakes, pirs and ])nd'dings, wlnle the bread was baked 
in the iron "l)ntch o\'en," or in the large l)rick one onlside. 

No one, who has ever \-isite(l one of these old-time homesteads, 
can forget the cheer and l)eanty of tlie light and hi'at from, these large 
fireplaces, particnlarly. in the evening, wlien tht' ])ine l<nt)ts were thrown 
on, the beautifid play of the light on the l)rass candlesticks on the 
mantel, the brass warming [)an on tlie wall, and ]H'wter kitchen uare 
polished and shining distributed around, while from the joists hung 
the guns, game bai:^s, shot pouches and other implements for hunting or 
defense. Out of the kitchen opened the private sitting and bedroom of 
the heads of the family. ( )n the opposite side of the hall was "the 
room" kept for formal hospitality, the corner cu])boar(l filled with 
dainty china, the samplers hung heside the famil}- silhouetts on the 
wall, the old-fashioned fm-niture, and the floor covered with a hand- 
some striped car])et of Imme manufacture, all coimljined to make a 
picture pleasing to the eye and gratifying to the taste. Adjoining "the 
room" were two guest chambers, the family bedrooms were up stairs. 

In that home ftdl of plent\ and happiness the family grew to man- 
hood and womanhood, the sons occnj^ied, with their father, in tilling 
the ground and pre])aring the wool and tlax lor feminine hands, the 
daughters and their mother in the manifold duties of the household, 
wdiich included the carding and spinning- of all yarn, which was after- 
wards woven into the cloth and flannel for clothing and the linen for 
sheets and tablecloths. All, however, was not labor, for nuich recrea- 
tion added enjoyment to their lives, the mother was a notable house- 
wife and her delightful hospitality was known afar, her daughters were 
handsome, her sons were gallant, and an invitation from Mrs. Dun- 
ham was considered a compliment highly prized by the recipient. She 
lived to be over one hundred years of age, and died jtdy i(). 1864. ller 
death was regretted by all who knew her. ller husband died Feb. 
10, 1844.

was m. Oct. 2"], 1825, to Catharine Herron Mead, whose father, Gen. 
David Mead, was the founder of Meadville, Pa. On his marriage he 
built a house and settled on a part of the old homestead assigned him 
bv his father, where he lived a happy uneventful life and d. March 15, 
1875. He was always a farmer and although his early educational 
advantages were limited, he kept himself posted in the world's progress 
and was interested in its doings. When (|uite a young man he served 
in defence of his country in the war of 1812. In politics he was an old 
line Whig and always was true to the principles of his party. Until 
sometime after his marriage, he kept the traditions of his fathers and 
observed the "Seventh Day," but in deference to his wife, he changed 
to the "Lord's Day," and worshipped with her in the Episcopal Church. 
Late in life he was baptized and received into the communion of that 
church, and died trusting in the Lord Jesus Christ. He was a tender 
and dutiful son, a devoted brother, a faithful and loving husband, and 
was honored and beloved by his children and friends. He was always 
chivalrous to woiuen and fond of children and m his old age, he was 
never so happy as when he had one grandchild on each arm of his 
chair and the baby on his knee, he would relate his adventures with 
the bears and rattlesnakes in his youth or recall the incidents of his 
visits to "dear old Jersey." He was handsome in appearance with a 
courtesy of m'anner that commended him to all who knew him.

gen-tle womanliness of her character. For nearly fifty-one years a 
member of the First Presbyterian Church, the sincerity of her Christian 
profession was evinced by proof m'anifokl and constant. In her tongue 
was the law of khidness, in her common every day life shone the spirit 
of h.er Saviour. "Her works praise her in the gates." ''Her children 
rise up and call her blessed." 

Edward A. Reynolds was in boyhood, sent to school at Meadville, 
and from that date remained there and entered into active business, 
and filled many public offices of trust. In 1818 he was appointed clerk 
of the board of county commissioners. In 1830 he was appointed 
Protonotary of Crawford County by Gov. Wolf ; that ol^ce he held two 
consecutive terms, or until the adoption of the an":ended State Constitu- 
tion of 1839, by provision of which all county officers were made elec- 
tive. He was elected brigade inspector, with rank and title of major 
by the military division of 'Crawford County, and for seven years filled 
that position, through which he became generally kn'own to the people 
of his own and adjoining counties. Early in life he became connected 
with the First Presbyterian Church, and was chosen ruling elder for 46 
years or until his death. 

Rebecca and Sanmel Lord lived an-d d. in Meadville, leaving a large 
family which has become scattered. I cannot give any record of t'hem.

Simeon 'Dunham Reynolds, d. at London, Tennessee, June 28, 
1880, at the home of the Johnston family. His devotion to his wife 
was fully repaid by the same attention and loving tenderness by her 
family, with whom he remained after her deatih. In the year 1850, he 
went to Tennessee and was interested in the construction of the East 
Tennessee and Georgia Railroad. He assisted in the construction of 
that part of the road between D'alton, Ga., and the Hewassee River, 
also on other branches. For a greater portion of the time since that, 
he was a stockholder and director of the road. He was at the seige 
of Vicksburg and an officer with rank of major, under General Pem- 
berton.

II, 1756, Mary Taylor. Daniel and William Dunham v/ere among the 
original settlers of Georgia and South Carolina. They located at Dor- 
chester and Newport. It is stated they gave the names to those places 
in honor of the places in which they had previously lived, and of the 
residence of their mother in Rhode Island. Before locating they landed 
at Fernidina, Florida, in 1732. Daniel moved his family on the first of 
April, 1756, to Midway and Newport, Ga., where the history of his 
family is lost. The father of Daniel and William was a Congregation- 
alist, adhering to the teaching of the Pilgrims, Init their mother was a 
Baptist. The first settlement of Georgia was made during the reign of 
George II, King of England. This miserable condition of his jountry- 
men at that time made it necessarv for him to act in their l^ehalf. For 
the purpose of bettering their condition, he gave them a charter, grant- 
ing them the use of land in Georgia without compensation for twenty- 
one years, that they might here begin life anew. With this in view, 
General James Oglethorpe founded a I'oard of Trustees to carry out 
the design. He made a number of trips to Georgia, selecting the best 
colonists he could find to accompany him. One of the expeditions he 
stopped on the eastern coast of Massachuetts. Daniel and William 
Dunham at this time joined the company. In the second trip (leneral 
Oglethorpe took with him Charles Wesley, as his secretary, and John 
Weslev as a missionary to the Indians. These were famous preachers 
with whom the Methodist movements began in England. At the same 
time the Wesleys organized the Methodist Society in Georgia, the Con- 
gregationalist, now Presbyterian Church, was started by the Dunhams.

99 WILLIAM, m. (2) Mary Tayl.T. I'd). 2, 1756. William the 
brother of Daniel retained his residence at Dorchester and through him 
has the Dunham name been perpetuated in South I'arcjlina. The same 
religious relations that existed in his father's family continued in his. 
lie was a Congregationalist and his wife a lia})tist. He was twice 
married, first in Massachusetts and second to Mary Taylor. Married 
in 1756. This was a few days before his l)nither left for Georgia. 
William, d. Dec. 23, 17^)(;; made a will which bears a date prior to his 
death; all previous wills were set aside for the ])urpose of disinheriting 
his son, John, wIkj had married a wife imknown to him and against his 
wishes. After his death the children ignored the will and gave John 
his full share. Issue: 100. I. — John m. .Sarah Clancey. In 1779. he

Extract from William Dunham's Will. "Tteiu. I give and be- 
queath to my son John the use of one-lifth part of m\- lands and one- 
ninth part of my personal estate, not as yet given during his life, and 
at his death I give and becpieath it to his children to be e(|ually divided 
amongst them; but for want of such children to return and equally 
divided amongst the rest of my children and their heirs forever." This 
will goes on and gives his lands and money and personal and household 
propertv to his wife and children, ])lainly divided shear and shear, lands 
to the sons, money to the daughters. The closing item is this. "I give 
and bequeath to m\- loving wife Mary l^unham and my six children 
viz; William, Charles, Mary, Esther, Martha, Hannah, Paul. James 
and the child that my wife is now pregnant with, all the remainder. 
Thus it seems that he did not put John's name with his children. The 
child his wife was pregnant with was a son. Me was named Daniel, but 
did not reach manhood. After W'illiam Dunham's death his children 
is^nored his will as far as cutting f)ff |ohn went; and gave him his full 
share of his father's property, just the same as though his last will had 
never been made.

advantages in the manag-enient of railroad properties, not possessed by 
many railroad men. 

A friend of Mr. Bradford Dunham furnishes the following sketch 
of the history of that gentleman: Mr. Dunham was born at Cedar 
Point, Liberty County, Ga., June 19, 1838. He lived on a farm until 
about seventeen years of age, his first regular occupation being that 
of a cowboy, and I have often heard him say tliat at that time if he 
could have secured a Winchester rifle, he would have much preferred 
the plains. After leaving the farm, he clerked in wholesale and retail 
stores for eighteen months. He then entered a machine shop and 
worked for three years. In i860 he went to Savannah, Ga., and se- 
cured a position as freight forwarding clerk for the Central Railroad of 
Georgia. In 1861 he worked on the Atlantic & Gulf Railroad as freight 
conductor, and afterwards as passenger conductor. In 1862 he operated 
the Brunswick & Albany Railroad (now the Brunswick & Western), 
between Brunswick and Tebeauville (now Waycross), Ga., under orders 
from Governor Jos. E. Brown, who had taken charge of the road as a 
military necessity. P^or two months in 1862, Mr. Dunham worked on 
the Charleston & Savannah Railway as brakeman and freight con- 
ductor. In July of that year he went to the Alabama & Florida Rail- 
road of Alabama, as a clerk, in which capacity he served until Decem- 
ber of the same year, when he was promoted to the position of master 
of transportation, which office he filled until he was made assistant 
superintendent and master of transportation, three years later. In 
1867 Mr. Dunham went to the Montgomery & Eufaula Railroad, as 
superintendent of construction, and master of transportation, and in 
November of the same year was made superintendent of the road, 
which position he held until August, 1870, doing, in addition, the work 
of road master and master mechanic.
